The tallest mountain in Oregon.

My birth place and such a beautiful drive any time of the year with lots of scenery, places to stop and taste the wonderful fruit and goodies along the way. Fruit Loop is a joy to go on. All the way from Hood River to Odell, to Parkdale, Dee and back to Hood River and seeing the majestic beauty of The Hood just about wherever you drive. Takes my breath away every time I see it.

I hiked to the top 7/18/20. It is a challenging hike. I recommend bringing hiking poles, lots of water, good hiking shoes, and sunscreen. I recommend starting early before it gets too hot. I arrived to the parking lot at 6:10 and it was almost full. This is very popular hike. It took me about 4.5 hours to get to the summit including few breaks that I took to have water and a snack. There are parts of the trail that has loose rocks. I noticed a lot of dogs. A lot of owners lacked trail etiquette. I could tell that too many poor dogs were struggling doing this trail but their owners did not care.

Steens Mountain, in far SE Oregon, is one of the most amazing wilderness places accessible by car. Located in the Great Basin, it is a 30 mile long fault block uplift mountain which reaches almost 10,000 ft at it's highest point. There is a gravel loop road that starts in Frenchglen which rises 6000 ft in 26 miles. You'll drive through a herd of sheep on the way up. At the top, there are three glacial gorges the most spectacular of which is Kiger Gorge which is perfectly U-shaped. Looming over Kiger is the eponhymously named Gunsight notch also glacially carved. From the top, the view is east to the Alvord Desert; to the south on the mountain is Wildhorse lake, accessible by a steep climb down/up. If you like scenery in the middle of nowhere there is no better place. If you time it right, you could view fulll moon rise from the top. I wish I had better words to tell you how amazing this place is.

A small but challenging ski area with some steep terrain serviced by four chairlifts.

Mt Ashland is best known for its skiing, but we love it for walking. It's especially wonderful in spring and early summer, when wildflowers plaster the slopes and meadows on the approach to the summit. It takes around an hour's walking to reach the craggy butte at the top, and is well worth the effort. Unless you want to hike all day from bottom to top, be prepared to drive around 8 miles of twisty road to the ski lodge area, or beyond, where you can park and begin a less ambitious but still rewarding walk. On a clear day, views of Mount Shasta, Pilot Rock, Mt.McLoughlin and other mountains in the far north give you a "top of the world" feeling.

A forested mountain peak lying just outside the city of Portland: great for hiking.

This is a great hiking/walking park. So many trails and choices to walk. Due to the Coronavirus, these hiking trails were not so crowded. Great walk here. Check out the dead Volcano.
