Rare nice day this spring so I had to walk! The trail was really muddy (I wear Keen Arroyo sandals and it was a real challenge to keep my feet dry and mud free, but I did!). The leaves are just starting to come out so there were still several views of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers.

Walking on a fine spring day along the Willamette River in Portland. Start at Rose Garden MAX Station and end at the TriMet #36 Macadam Bus stop.
I tried to walk the entire Portland 40-Mile loop in 2 days. I made it 40 miles but that does not mean I finished. Turns out that the full route would have been closer to 60 miles. Blog
My goal with this walk was to hit as many close in Portland neighborhoods as I could in one trip. I started in Multnomah Village in the West Hills and made it as far as the Hawthorne District in South East. On the way I hit Hillsdale, Sellwood, Woodstock, and Clinton. In between each there were many smaller up and coming districts. Next time I plan on starting earlier in the day...

Summer walk through the Garden. Every season has something to offer. This year the irises were not yet out but we had a treat of some late Azaleas.
Part of the 40 mile loop: I'm going to get the entire trail geocoded for everyone this year...
Nice state park area in Portland, Oregon. As you could expect it is a bit crowded but lots of nice trails.
On this walk I set out with the goal of walking over every bridge in
Portland where pedestrians are allowed. I started at the Sellwood
Bridge and crossed the Saint John's Bridge 18 miles later. I then
tacked on another 4 miles walking to the Max train station and then
another 1.6 miles walking downtown looking for a bar to hold up in
until my rescue vehicle showed up. My GPS data registers 3 miles where I...
The walk through Sellwood is our regular daily walk, taking about an hour to go 2.3 miles. It’s an extremely pleasant walk as we often encounter friends along the way or stop at local stores to buy groceries and other things. From our house we walk through the neighborhood to the Springwater Corridor Trail, by Oaks Pioneer Church, through Sellwood Park, along the Sellwood Bluff overlooking Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge, to 13th...

A loop to the lowest point in Portland to the highest point with a stop for Escape From New York Pizza.
Went out my front door on a mission to either go into work for some Sunday productivity or just take a walk. On Sundays the buses don't run very often so I knew that there was a chance I might miss it. In that case the plan was to just take a few mile walk.
About a mile from my house I hit the bus stop only to discover that I did...
