Pittock Place




We went for a nice walk around different parts of forest above Portland today.  We verified that there are no roses in the International Rose Test Garden and that it was recently pruned.  We then went up to Pittock Mansion and took in the view from there.  I was also excited because the parking lot was also a trailhead for Forest Park, so I finally can say that I was in Forest Park today.  Forest Park is a 40 mile loop system that is right down town and because it is so big, it connects many different parts of the city.  It is huge and there are a ton of maps and trailheads and suggestions and I have always been a little overwhelmed in making that our destination, but now we will have to get back up there again soon.
