Water gap information


The Columbia River cut the Wallula Gap, seen from Main Street in Wallula, Washington

A water gap is a gap that flowing water has carved through a mountain range or mountain ridge and that still carries water today.[1] Such gaps that no longer carry water currents are called wind gaps. Water gaps and wind gaps often offer a practical route for road and rail transport to cross the mountain barrier.
