A short walk with Lori and Jeanette around Hoyt Arboretum and down to Goose Hollow Inn for lunch. The forecast was for a good chance of rain but we did get a drop.
Hoyt Arboretum Walk
Cannon Beach Walk
A visit and walk at Cannon Beach on the Oregon coast.
Vancouver Waterfront Walk
I like doing my Sunday morning walks as it is a quit and unbusy time. This time I did one that was close to home and a familiar place at the Vancouver Waterfront. It has been interesting to see this area change and grow over the past several years. I did standard route of starting a Fort Vancouver and then doing a loop around the new development of the Vancouver Waterfront.
Gearhart Walk
Lori, Jeanette, Sylvia and I follow park of a walk I found on Oregon Hikers field guide. It ended up being about 5 miles long. Afterwards we went back to the beach house for beer tastings and munchies.
Westside Regional Trail Walk
An exploratory walk of the Westside Regional Trail. I was surprise to find that this trail was like a rollercoaster with climbing over several ridges and one Mt. Williams. All that other West side regional trails are flat. Mt. Williams is an area still under development but holds nice potential for a nature area with trails. I started may walks at Murry Scholls Town Center and went to trails end at SW Blanton Street.
By the numbers: About 9.3 miles with 1200 ft. total elevation gain and on the trail for 4 hours.
