The little town of Gaston grew up along with the railroads and stagecoach lines in the late 1800s, and eventually became a thriving farming community.
Today this little burg to the west of Portland has joined the burgeoning wine industry with several award-winning vineyards and tasting rooms. Thrill seekers whiz through the forest at Tree to Tree Aerial Adventure Park on the zip line, and mountain bike enthusiasts can enjoy riding the trails around Henry Hagg Lake.
