Snowshoeing & Sledding at Mt Hood

Finally, after more just about two months in Portland, we made our way up to Mt Hood for a bout of playing in the snow. Again, we were taken out by our friends and kindred spirits from Atlanta, Jarrett and Rey!

This was their second time here so they were showing us the ropes. We rented some snowshoes at a local shop and parked in a freshly plowed parking lot near an open meadow.

Of course, there was no grass in this meadow at this time of year.  What a sight!

We got to shoe’in as the puffy white flakes came down around us. Then we got to Sled’in.

Something about the texture created by the trees and snow together…

This place is beautiful! I could stay here forever… with warm clothes that is.
