Mt Hood
Our first climb was up Beacon Rock Trail - its apparently an old volcano "tube".
Karl posts pictures of me pointing so - here ya go...
At the top
Someone had just thrown some water on Karl and hit him really hard so he looks a little peaked :)
The beginning of our long journey up Hamilton Mountain - Karl contemplates ....
I like this picture because it proves that sometimes, the sun is so bright in Oregon that you have to squint. I seem to have hit that odd sunny day!
Once again - Karl contemplates....
This is called Rodney Falls - it was really pretty. You could go up to this rock area at the top where the falls come down and it was called the Pool of the Winds and it completely soaked you - like a mini Niagra Falls.

Viewing Beacon Rock from Hamilton Mountain
On the Damn viewing deck... :)
The fish ladders that Karl loves so much to sit for hours and watch. They actualy drain and clean them in the winter months so - no fish viewing today.

Multonomah Falls at twilight.... too cold and too dark to really appreciate it so we moved on.

Oh, thanks for sharing those pictures! Of course, it just makes my heart-home sickness worse, but I'll deal. Need pines trees soon!
What was the elevation of the mountain climb? Looks beautiful. Love the "happy Karl" moment in the city! Too bad he couldn't show you the "DAM" fish. Tsk, tsk, Alison. Watch your language! :::smiling:::
