I"m moving to Portland in May and I wanted to try to meet some friends before I get there...
Where are the best places to hike? and where can I find a tranquil body of water?
Thanks!

Re: Moving to Portland
Mon, March 16, 2009 - 3:10 PMHi Kandace. Welcome to Portland.
The best place to go hiking near Portland is in the Columbia Gorge. A good book describing hikes is "100 Hikes in Northwest Oregon" by William L Sullivan.
May should be the peak of wildflower season. A good book on wildflowers is "Wildflowers of the Colubia Gorge" by Russ Jolley. The book has lots of pictures and locations and times to see local wildflowers.
If you want to go on a group hike - an excellent way to meet people - check out the links below:
