Thank you so much for capturing this amazing sprint through our town! Even if you did reveal some of our secrets 😂Psyched you got the opportunity to get out to the gorge, too. Great overview 🧡

If you want some good and peaceful waterfalls, head east to Silver Falls State Park. That place is amazing and worth the drive. No, it’s not Portland, but it is PNW and has the Trail of Ten falls around the 7.2 mile loop.

LOL'ing at the weather. My son goes to Oregon State University and when we did the school tour we had sun, rain, and even snow/sleet. I feel like we got the FULL Oregon experience that day. We ALWAYS hit up Tacovore for tacos and Grand Central Bakery for all the baked goodies.

Whenever I'm in Portland, I go to the OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science & Industry), where they actually have a retired submarine in the river that you can tour, along with the jet boat rides and a lot of other fun stuff. I like to ride the Portland Aerial Tram to get an unparalleled view of the city, tour Pittock Mansion 1000 feet up in the West Hills, and go to Hoyt Arboretum and the zoo in Washington Park. And no trip to Portland is complete until you go to the beach and see Haystack Rock, Cape Kiwanda and Seaside.

I'm heading to Portland next week for Rose City Comic Con and I'm definitely gonna stop at Matt's BBQ, I can't wait. First visit to the West side for me

PDX

Ha! We moved last year from the Portland metro to the Chattanooga metro. Partly because PDX has been a cluster for a while, and because Chattanooga reminds of what PDX used to be like when we were growning up. Still love the PDX area for the nature and climate, but won't ever move back and the Chatt area has all of that too, minus the crazy.😂

It did not

I don’t get the hate. If you don’t live in it, you have no sound knowledge to be criticizing. If you used to live in it, then move on and stop obsessing over a city you left. If you live in it, move if you don’t feel safe. So much exaggerated anger towards a city, like they were wronged and dumped by an ex. Having lived in other major cities, Portland isn’t much worse with its issues. If you can’t see past that and focus on the wonderful things it does have to offer, then you really don’t belong in Portland anyway. Never seen people so triggered over a city.

Food, waterfall, food...um, seems a bit superficial to be honest but I guess it is a 36hr thing. No coast, Japanese garden, Chinese garden, hiking, fishing, biking, homeless encounters, kayaking....etc...etc...
