It's not really across from Portland, it's across from Sauvie Island, where
the State Refuge at the north end combined with Ridgefield form one great
big chunk of habitat. Sauvie Island is about 10 miles north of Portland,
the refuge a few miles further north than that (as it's the north end and
the bridge to the island's near the south end).
