The Old Salmon River Trail is located near Mount Hood and the small town of Welches, Oregon. This is an easy trail that’s great for a quick getaway, with plenty of lush green eye candy in the form of moss and ferns.

Boulder Ridge hike
I love discovering new hikes… new to me, that is. A friend and I hiked Boulder Ridge today, accessed via the Wildwood Recreation Area near Mount Hood. I can’t believe I didn’t know about this one before… it’s a great conditioning hike.
