Caching in Portland, chapter 1

Sitting at 45°29.858N, 122°42.511W, a few hundred feet from the first find of the day - Council Crest. The idea was to have a short stroll before breakfast. It was just 1.75 miles. 2 hours later, and probably 5 miles of switchback, I found it.

I left a hot wheels, a Chrisman Mill wine cork, and a travel bug called Rock Climbing General.

It is also worth mentioning that when I stepped out of the hotel, I was at 9 feet elevation, and I'm now at 1038 feet elevation. About 300 feet of that was up one set of stairs!

Council Crest is one of my favorite places on Earth. Glad you found it. :)

Next year I'll be happy to drive around and cache with you. Kinda hard this year, since I couldn't make it, but my family is out there and has cars aplenty.
