What about the cliffs?
Written by Julie DiLeone

Many of you have noticed that garlic mustard can grow on the cliffs in the Gorge. We noticed this a few years ago. When I was interviewed by the Oregonian last year, I described this discovery as 'a very low day for me' and it remains something we have not been able to comprehensively address. Some groups, like Oregon State Parks, have the expertise to use climbing ropes to get to it. In most cases, we can only control it above and below the cliff to try to contain it. In future years, we may be able to hire crews that can rope up and take care of it on some sites. If you know of a cliff that you think is a priority for control, please let us know.
