Kristina at Rumours Hair Studio has stepped up to be our Featured Business and March Giveaway!

If you’re unfamiliar with Rumours Hair Studio in downtown White Salmon, let’s introduce you!

She loves creating effortless styles that flow with your everyday routine and has experience with all types of hair, including curly, razor, shear and clipper cuts. She also provides color services.

We asked Kristina a little about her life before she landed in White Salmon..

“I was born and raised in the Bay Area, and all my training comes from working and living in San Francisco and Los Angeles for many years before settling in the Gorge. My flare for self-expression came at an early age.”

What about your free time..

“I love hanging out with my beagle, Bowie, who you can find at the studio most days. And I love a good cup of coffee, classic movies, cooking and getting lost in the Gorge!”

We’re so happy to have you here, Kristina! What a great addition to our awesome downtown businesses in White Salmon!  Kristina provides a genderless booking experience and a myriad of services!

White Salmon has a NEW mural, and this one tells a White Salmon has a NEW mural, and this one tells a story of community, creativity, and connection!

What makes this mural extra special? It all started with the imaginations of local students! 

White Salmon middle and high school students were invited to share their ideas and artwork inspired by health, wellness, and community. Their creativity helped shape the vision for this beautiful new addition to White Salmon!

From there, the team at Community Roots Wellness Hub collaborated with talented muralist Nancy Guzman, who brought those ideas to life through a thoughtful creative process.

The result is a colorful celebration of what makes our small town so special—people coming together, sharing ideas, and creating something meaningful for everyone to enjoy.

🌿 A big thank you to Community Roots Wellness Hub, Nancy Guzman, and all the students, educators, and community members who helped make this possible!

📍Next time you’re exploring White Salmon, keep an eye out for this newest piece of public art!

Harvest has officially wrapped up in the Columbia Harvest has officially wrapped up in the Columbia Gorge, but wine tasting season is far from over!

Fall is one of the most beautiful times to explore Gorge wine country, where golden vineyards, dramatic landscapes, cozy tasting rooms, and incredible wines make for the perfect autumn getaway!

A few fun facts about the Columbia Gorge AVA—the westernmost appellation in eastern Washington and perhaps the most diverse winegrowing region in the state 👇🏻

Named for the spectacular stretch of the Columbia River that cuts through ancient basalt bedrock, creating towering cliffs and dramatic ridgelines, this unique wine region spans both Washington and Oregon.

What makes it so special? The incredible diversity of climate, soils, and elevation, with dramatic changes in rainfall and temperature as you travel from west to east.
To the west, cooler, wetter conditions favor Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Head east and the landscape transforms into warmer, drier terrain, ideal for bold reds and Rhône varieties.
Some vineyards are even planted on the slopes of an extinct volcano!

Established in 2004, the Columbia Gorge AVA encompasses approximately 191,000 acres and 1,300 planted vines, with 30+ vineyards and nearly 20 wineries on the Washington side! 

And the best part? You can experience this incredible wine region right here in White Salmon and the surrounding Gorge communities!

Make a weekend of it! Explore downtown White Salmon, visit local tasting rooms, meet the winemakers behind the bottles, enjoy delicious local food, and take in some of the most spectacular scenery in the Pacific Northwest.

Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply looking for a beautiful fall escape, there’s no better time to sip your way through the Gorge. 

👉🏻 Ready to plan your wine country getaway? Head to the link in our bio and read "Wine, Wander, and Stay: Discover the Columbia Gorge AVA" for wineries to visit, places to stay, and inspiration for your next adventure!
