Small home experts Alexis Stephens and Christian Parsons have been taking their tiny house on wheels around North America to find functional, attractive little abodes and advocate for living simply. After almost five years on the road, they were stopped in their tracks by a treehouse in the Columbia River Gorge.
Elevated 20 feet above the ground on private property in White Salmon, Washington, is the Klickitat Treehouse, a Scandinavian-style dwelling fully supported by three Douglas fir trees.
Floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights frame views of Mount Adams and the forest canopy.

The Nez Perce Tribe is reclaiming an ancestral village site in the Eastern Oregon town of Joseph more than a century after being pushed out the area.
This month, the tribe purchased 148 acres of an area known as “the place of boulders,” or Am’sáaxpa.
Chief Joseph held council on the ridge above, before a sweeping view of the Wallowa Mountains. Hundreds of tribal members would camp there at the peak of the fishing season and catch sockeye salmon along the Wallowa River.

JOSEPH, Ore. (AP) The Nez Perce Tribe is reclaiming an ancestral village site in Eastern Oregon more than a century after being pushed out the area.
This month, the tribe purchased 148 acres of an area known as “the place of boulders,” or Am’sáaxpa, Oregon Public Broadcasting reported.
Chief Joseph once held council on the ridge above, before a sweeping view of the Wallowa Mountains. Tribal members would camp there and catch sockeye salmon along the Wallowa River.
“We feel fortunate to be at this juncture in time to be able to say that we are on our way home. We feel the landscape misses us, and we miss the landscape,” Nez Perce Tribal Executive Committee Chairman Shannon Wheeler said.
