ON THE ROAD TO MOUNT HOOD
August 25, 2015The road between Portland and Mount Hood is lined with trees – not just pine trees, although they abound, but many varieties of trees. Once you pass the growing nurseries of Sandy, it is non-stop beauty. In the fall the trees are changing color and the road is one continuous rainbow of hues of orange, yellow, rust, and red. The rest of the year they are green and just plain gorgeous. Forests of trees as far as the eye can see are yours to enjoy while you drive.
