I've been sticking to the trails of Forest Park and the river gorges of the Columbia River Gorge. I've tried a few new trails like Herman Creek and Tanner Creek, but also stuck to regulars like Clackamas River trail, Gorge 400 trail and Wildwood.
As the snow level recedes, I hope to do some longer loops in the Gorge, like the Eagle-Tanner Loop, Herman-Nick Eaton Loopage, Nesmith Point and then eventually make my way up to Mt. Hood and MSH for some good mountain runs.
I'll also be spending some time in the Southern Oregon area so maybe I'll try the Rogue River Trail and Lithia trail system.
Here are some not so exciting pictures from my recent adventures.

| Old Tanner Butte TH |
 |
| Two waterfalls converging near behind Tanner Butte TH |
 |
| The much less traveled Old Tanner Creek Trail to the Moffet Creek Tr. I covered maybe half a mile of this unmaintained trail before getting spooked that I'd get lost and turned around. |
 |
| First Wilderness of the Year |
 |
| Jumped up to Wauna Viewpoint on the way back since it was a clear day. |
 |
| Little blurry, but here's Wauna Viewpoint from Eagle Creek. Third hump down of the left. I believe Wauna Point is the upper most Pinnacle. Still need to check that one out. Also checked out the Eagle Creek Overlook while I was down here. Nice little setup there. |
 |
| Blurri iphone shot through its waterproof case. Waterfall on Herman Cr Tr. Not sure of its name |
 |
| A flooded Cedar Swamp Camp in lightly snowing conditions. |
 |
| Fuel order arrived! |
 |
| Had a little fun editing this one. Although it still look blurry. Pup Creek Falls |
 |
| Second wilderness of the season. Clackamas River Trail |
 |
| I think this is called Hanging Rock... |
 |
| Fearless Brewing Company in Estacada, OR. Always have to end with a beer. |
 |
| Kerrie doing huffing it up the mountain during a little off trail exploration. And did I mention that we got engaged in January? Fun times to come. |
