An island of colliding visions - Jul 21, 2008 - The Columbian

PORTLAND — Blue herons, bald eagles and ospreys nest above impenetrable blackberry thickets, punctuated by rusting beer cans, plastic bottles, cast-off grocery carts, chunks of plastic and random flotsam scattered along a four-mile stretch of beach on west Hayden Island, a half-mile across the Columbia River from downtown Vancouver. Coyotes prowl beneath one of the last black cottonwood-ash stands along the river. They hunt rabbits near the sandy shore. Deer forage in the clearings. Canada geese waddle across dunes created by dumped dredge spoils and slide into the murky water. River otters, beaver and turtles slither over the 4-foot-diameter sewage outfall pipe to the river’s edge. Songbirds flit about, and salmon, sturgeon and carp loll in the shallows. It won’t stay this way much longer. But there are colliding visions of west Hayden’s future.
