5 miles of hiking • 1250' elevation gain •
Took my son in his new pack and traveled to Council Crest after meeting Mrs. Woodpecker for lunch at work downtown. Took the Conor Trail to Gibbs St. and caught the Marquam Hill Road trail, switchbacked down, and eventually connected with the Council Crest trail. Sonny loved the pack and the hike and was fawned over by people on the summit! So nice that this hike is only five miles from my house.
