This trip was an attempt to turn the Marquam Trail loop into something that is more than 10.0mi and 2,000ft elevation gain so I can classify it as one of my "goal hikes". I fell just short of my goal by about a half mile and 100ft elevation gain. Full Trip Report: http://www.dustindubois.com/2012/06/marquam-trail-hike-extended-06272012

Neahkahnie Mountain with Roy & Thum from PortlandHikers! Quite the show from the wind and trees! I've never walked across a large root cluster when it was coming up out of the ground due to its connected tree whipping back and forth in the wind. And there was a tree with dead animal tails hanging from it!

Well, I was gonna go up to Council Crest and head North on the Wildwood... but my feet and legs were wet before I even turned off of Scholls Ferry Rd. to head up Patton (on foot). I turned around at Patton and headed home to get dry. This is only on here because the slush and snow/ice, as well as the pack, made it more than a normal surface road walk.

Council Crest to Wildwood and back, then Council Crest to Terwilliger and back. Elevation gain and mileage are educated-estimates as GPS wasn't working, will re-do for proper measurements.

My first hike of 2012 and, while I wasn't able to make it out of town or do a "loony" hike, it was a great morning for a stroll through some of Portland's trail system. I did the Marquam Trail to Council Crest Out-and-Back for breakfast this morning (started around 7am), except I did it backward. I got dropped off below Council Crest where Talbot turns into ...
