Columbia Gorge/Mt Hood Loop

This is a day trip from Portland - along the Columbia River Gorge and around Mt Hood. I suggest getting an early start pout of Portland to beat the crowds.

You will also want to pre-purchase and print the recreation passes (see info at https://www.fs.usda.gov/main/crgnsa/passes-permits/recreation) required by the Forest Service in Washington or Oregon at their trailheads and parking lots.

The Day ePass and National Forest Day Pass ($5) is a day use pass honored at all Forest Service operated recreation sites in Washington and Oregon where a day use fee is required. You will want to purchase a day pass for the day you do this road trip @ https://www.discovernw.org/national-forest-recreation-epass-national-forests-in-washington-and-oregon-only.html?Session_ID=270116a743b6983b911eb2aa9192ff9b

Also, to see Multnomah Falls, timed reservation tickets are now required at Multnomah Falls @ https://www.recreation.gov/ticket/facility/10073376
