Not one for small gestures, Sam Hill built a full-scale replica of Salisbury Plain's Stonehenge on the cliffs above the Columbia River, about a mile east of The Dalles bridge in Washington. Dedicated as a peace memorial to Klickitat County's soldiers killed in WWI, his Stonehenge was built of poured concrete and represents an intact site (unlike its tumbled-down English cousin).
Hill planned that his Stonehenge would line up for celestial events such as equinoxes. It's a popular place for odd rites and ceremonies, and offers great views of the gorge.
