I finally reached the summit of Mt. Hood. I’ve been trying to blog about it, but it was just such an amazing experience, it’s hard to put it into words. So here are pictures!. At 1,000 . . . → keep reading I’m just headed out the door for the first hike of spring. The weather report says we have a 50/50 chance of staying dry.
