Coastal Strip - Rain, fog, wind, fudge, bumper boats. We hiked out to Cape Falcon after multiple recommendations, it did not disappoint.
The Cascades - Snow, volcanoes, adventure vans, gnar bros. This is where you go to visit winter when you want it. We took a short walk/ski to Trillium Lake to gaze at the 11,249 foot tall Mount Hood. Thats 3,429m for those of you who like logical systems of measurement.
1990s Apartment Home Office - Carpeted, cryptic Post-it messages, occasional cat visits. This is the habitat where I spend the majority of my time, mostly deciding if I want to work sitting or standing.
Eastern Columbia River Valley - Out in the transition zone between moderate rainforest and dry shrub-steppe desert we hiked the Hood River Mountain loop. The sun and clear skies provided warmth and views of Mount Adams up in Washington. We also successfully managed to not get lost in the encroaching dusk while contending with multiple unmarked trail intersections.
