Mt. Hood Skibowl
hy Go?
For the open-air recreational possibilities. Welches, Oregon, situated at the edge of Mount Hood National
Forest; and Glacier, Washington, at the base of Mount Baker, are ideally located for all things outdoor. Whether your idea
of perfection is following scenic trails up wooded valleys, casting fishing lines in wild rivers, or snowshoeing your way
through nearby winter wonderlands, the mountains of Oregon and Washington in the ever-beautiful Pacific Northwest
have something for you. Not sure where to start? See below.

“Day-trips into Portland would be easy, as would be the Columbia [River] Gorge. You could also take a trip
to Seattle, Mount St. Helens, or the Grand Coulee Dam.”
