Why Portland, OR, Is the Coolest City in the US

One way to get off the beaten path is to hike the lesser-known trail known as the Larch Mountain Hike. With a long distance of 14.4 miles round trip, it's more than enough time to soothe your mind, nourish your spirit, and work your glutes. (You know, after all that eating!) Not only will you encounter a handful of cascading waterfalls along the way, but you'll also become inspired by the rejuvenating outdoor setting.
