The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation has volunteered within the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic area. By using prescribed burning and seeding treatment, they are conserving and protecting the elk habitat. Read more about this area where the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation volunteered at below.

The Seven Mile/Rowena Plateau is a beautiful oak, savannah area located on high bluffs overlooking the Columbia River west of The Dalles. It supports a resident elk herd of approximately 70 animals, with 150 elk generally wintering in the area.
