The Columbia River Maritime Museum has a wonderful collection of artifacts on the wreck, from pieces of the ship to items that were on board when she wrecked in 1906. Together with first hand accounts, museum artifacts, and recreations in Unreal Engine 5, we'll take a detailed look at her past all the while exploring what remains of the old sailing ship.
