Give us a warm(ish) autumn day in the Pacific Northwest and we’ll find a place to hike. It was a perfect morning to get out and explore the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge and tackle the Cape Horn Loop Trail.
You can watch the video of it HERE!
Continue readingIt was a beautiful weekend in October when we made our way to the Mt. Hood to tackle the Ramona Falls loop (video HERE).
The last time we went on this hike was a little more than SEVEN years ago, and we looked like children (pictorial proof below!).
Continue readingHand and toe warmers, ACTIVATE! On the last weekend of September, we hiked out to University Falls in the Tillamook State Forest (on the way out to the Oregon Coast), and it was chilly and rainy.
But totally worth it! Video is up HERE!
Continue readingWith a name like “Misery” it has be painful. Don’t let the video fool you. There was a lot of misery, but also a lot of splendor. This hike makes you work for the views and the joy, and we love it!

Maybe it’s obvious from our previous trips to Warrior Rock or Cape Disappointment, but there’s something I can’t help but appreciate when it comes to lighthouses.
