So why am I excited?
It’s simple, really: If it’s raining down here, the snow is likely to be flying in the mountains.
It’s the promise of winter backpacking outings, snowshoeing trips, snow that will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As Halloween rolls up, I thought it would be fun to feature a hike appropriate for the season. Enter Devil’s Rest, the sinister sounding (and less-visited) counterpart of the ever-popular Angel’s Rest in the Columbia River Gorge. Devil’s Rest is a forested hill that sits some 2200 feet above the Columbia River. Why is it [...]]]></description>

The clouds hang low over the Columbia as you take exit 41 on I-84 and drive past the Eagle Creek fish hatchery to the Eagle Creek trailhead.
