Scenic area that extends south from scenic Columbia River Gorge across more than sixty miles of forested mountains, lakes and streams.
I can't even believe how good the day was and how beautiful the lighting was. We started at around 3.45 PM and it took us 1 hour 10 mins to go to the top. The elevation gain is pretty steady, although its 1200ft so you need to be an average hiker to tackle this one. Its almost a 5 mile round trip, a hiking pole really helps manage the elevation gain towards the end of the hike. No views while hiking as you are just hiking up surrounded by beautiful pine trees, at the end you are treated to a beautiful view of Mount hood. I would highly recommend this hike to anyone who is going to this area. Its a must do activity.

Visit the beautiful temple grounds, gardens and Visitors' Center located on 10 acres near the intersection of I-5 and Hwy 217. Open daily from 9am to 9pm. The Center offers exhibits and information about faith, temples, the importance of families, and other religious values of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Children, accompanied by adults, are also welcome and can enjoy interactive displays and activities about the temple grounds and Center.
Wonderfully welcoming, with a peaceful feeling that is hard to find any other place. Informative, interesting and enlightening things to learn. Wonderful guides to assist, movies to watch, interactive displays, and beautiful artwork and grounds. Worth the time to visit, COMPLETELY ENJOYABLE.

My son and I went for a 14 mile hike up to the lowest viewpoint of Mt Hood, Reed Glacier, Sandy River's watefalls, from meadows on Yocum Ridge. Along the way there we meandered through the moss ladden trees amongst mushrooms and lichen to Ramona Falls with its mossy rocks and rainbows where sun peers through the shady trees.

The trails are covered and protected from the harsh summer sun, so that makes the hiking/trekking much easier. The entire trail is along the Salmon River and is just lovely and quaint. There are bathrooms and lots of picnic tables and water stations next to the tables. I wished we brought picnic food. Be sure to put on bug guards. Those mosquitos are hearless!

We visited this park a couple of times on a recent visit of family in the area. We enjoyed the disc golf course and some of the open green space on the first visit and then returned later with the entire family for a picnic at one of the shelters. Lots of open space, great features, and many athletic fields and walking trails. There is a lot to see and do at this location.

The only accredited Clematis collection in North America with over 1800 clematis on display as an inspiration for home gardeners surrounding the historic farmhouse at Luscher Farm. This is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization. Plants for sale every Friday and gardening classes throughout the year. The main fundraiser is Inviting Vines on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend and includes tour of private gardens, breakfast and tea with guest speakers.
I have always liked Clematis vines, but after chancing by Rogerson Clematis Garden, I am enthralled. This garden is compact, nestled behind a farmhouse on a country road so the many paths winding through beautifully tended displays of the most mind-bogglingly diverse collection of Clematis in North America will be a wonderful surprise. The diversity among native species is well-represented and the unending variations created by breeders keep this place awash in flowers for nearly the whole year. Check their website for what's in bloom and directions. Some days their nursery sells plants also. My new favorite spot in the Portland, Oregon area.
