General Information about Bridal Veil

Bridal Veil is a virtual ghost town located in Multnomah County, Oregon, United States. It was established in the 1880s during a logging boom. It was established by a logging company as it harvested timber on nearby Larch Mountain. It was a company mill town, built and centered around a sawmill, and it had a close relationship with the logging town of Palmer for the first 50 years of its history. As of July 2006, all that remained of the town was a post office, a cemetery and a church. It is located in the Columbia River Gorge.
Bridal Veil was established in 1886. Bridal Veil functioned as the Bridal Veil Falls Lumbering Company (BVFLCo) and built a sawmill one mile (1.6 km) up Larch Mountain. BVFLCo operated in Bridal Veil and the surrounding area from 1886-1936. A mile and half up the timber-rich mountain was the logging town of Palmer. Palmer and Bridal Veil shared common ownership as company mill towns. Together, the two towns produced lumber and were co-dependent. BVFLCo constructed a V-shaped log flume for the rough cut timber to get down the mountain to the planing mill at the railroad tracks in Bridal Veil.[1] After the timber was logged on the mountain, the fallen logs were brought to the sawmill in Palmer. As the rough-cut lumber exited Palmer's mill it traveled down the flume the mile and a half to the finishing mill in Bridal Veil. The dependency between the two towns ended in 1936 when the mill at Palmer was shut down.[2]
