Now Rodeo Drive-In storage @ 252 NW Loop Rd, White Salmon, WA 98672.

The concession still stands behind the main building. Some ramps are visible.

Please update.

This is another one where the concession building still stands, looks like its used as a shed? Also directly opposite the old drive-in site is the appropriately named Rodeo Drive-In Storage.

Could the Rodeo Drive-In be in neighboring White Salmon? Approx. address 260 NW Loop, White Salmon (Google). It goes back to at least 1959 on the topo maps and is clearly seen in a 1980 Photo of the area. Today, it appears to be private property, but you can still see the shape of the drive-in clearly. https://goo.gl/maps/c1rus
