Prindle, a town on the Columbia River, in the southwestern part of Skamania County.
The place was formerly called Cruzatt in honor of Peter Cruzatte of the Lewis and Clark expedition, by which Wind River had been named 'Cruzatte River' in 1805.
The Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway Company changed the name of the station to honor Ernest Hinsdale Prindle, a pioneer land owner there. [Origin of Washington Geographic Names", 1923]
