SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY PRICE $9.95 Portland's top thirty hikes, walks and bike rides. Maps, directions and parking. This book focuses on hikes and walks that visit or are adjacent to streams, rivers, ponds and Portland's iconic fountains. Falling waters or still waters, it doesn't seem to matter, people are drawn to the soothing almost mystical allure of water. Peaceful, serene and tranquil, are words often associated with quiet ponds, misty fountains and lazy streams. These same words are best used to describe the water themed hikes and walks in the book. Local knowledge, may be defined as expertise developed over a long time and based on personal experience. I have spent decades exploring, re-visiting and visiting yet again the outings and hikes I recommend. A good friend once said to me about his mountain climbing, "It's what I do." Well, this is what I like to do. A reviewer of my San Juan Island Cruise Guide book said, "The author only writes about his favorite places." Yes, that's what I do. I have not included outings or hikes that I don't like or struggled with and I don't think you would want me to. In writing this book I am sharing my local knowledge and the good times I have enjoyed visiting Portland's best water walks, strolls, hikes and outings, It's what you can do too.
