The last remaining sawmill in Clark County found a way to thrive after the Japanese lumber market tanked in the mid-1990's. As its peers sold off their planers and disappeared, Columbia Vista reinvested in its workforce and found new markets. Columbian reporter Aaron Corvin interviewed Columbia Vista president Bob Lewis on video about the company's return to growth. "Anybody can do the things we did," Lewis said. "You just have to want to do them."
