Mt. Hood Territory in Oregon covers a vast and diverse landscape, through the forested wilds of Mt. Hood National Forest, to the thriving city of Portland, into the rich farmlands of the Willamette Valley, and on to Oregon City - the "Promised Land" of brave pioneers hoping to change their lives, their luck, and their legacy in the 1800s.
For today's hearty adventurers, Mt. Hood Territory offers recreational pursuits as vast and diverse as the land it covers. Five of my favorite places to go, things to see, and fun to be had, spring from the various corners of this land of hope, enterprise, and promise.
My Mt. Hood Territory "Fave Five":
Silcox Hut, the Barlow Road, Oregon City, the Salmon River Trail, and Portland's Japanese Garden. Get the details here!
