OREGON FAMILY VACATIONS-MT HOOD/COLUMBIA RIVER
GORGE
Mt. Hood, the tallest of Oregon's Cascade peaks, stands watch over
the awe-inspiring Columbia River Gorge from a height of ll,239 ft..
The often-photographed glacier-glazed peak is home to year-round
skiing and snowboarding. Run-off from its volcanic slopes enriches
soil in the valleys below, which are famous for their production of
pears, peaches, cherries, apricots and apples. One of the largest
concentrations of high waterfalls in the nation spills forth from the
cliffs and ledges that wall in the mighty Columbia River to create the
nation's only national scenic area.
Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory - Close to Portland... A World AwaySM
From the 11,245-foot peak of its most recognized landmark,
majestic Mount Hood, to the fertile Willamette Valley farms where
homegrown specialties include tulips, berries, Christmas trees and
wines, Oregon's Mt. Hood Territory is ripe with activities to be
explored. Area offerings include historic tales stretching back to
Pioneer days along the Oregon Trail and the Barlow Road, an
abundance of festivals and events, diverse lodging and tax-free
shopping. Year-round recreation for all skill levels stretches from
the mountain (skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing) to our rivers
and lakes (white-water rafting, kayaking, fishing and swimming) our
trails (mountain biking, hiking, climbing and horseback riding) and
other activities such as golfing and camping.
Defined by the borders of Clackamas County, this scenic region
includes the following incorporated cities: Canby, Clackamas,
Damascus, Estacada, Gladstone, Happy Valley, Lake Oswego,
Milwaukie, Molalla, Oregon City, Sandy, West Linn, Wilsonville, and
the Villages of Mt. Hood (Government Camp, Welches, Brightwood,
