Things to Do around Portland OR with Your Pup

Portland has been on my roadtrip list for a long time. I finally made it happen in June this year. I love all its nature but not so much the downtown. The converge of Willamette River and Columbia River at the city makes everything different. It brings lives to the area and adds to its beauty. Ariel loves the various types of greens and shaded trails. Hiking with dogs in summer is not that miserable afterall.

Dog Friendly Ways to Enjoy North California Redwoods

North California redwoods are magnificent and worth a visit. Some of them are the oldest and tallest in the world. There are several places you can admire them: from south to north, Humboldt Redwoods State Park, Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, Redwood National Park, and Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park. However, almost none of them allow dogs on hiking trails. I was able to find some dog friendly places around those redwood parks. Ariel and I had a wonderful time.

Dazzling 2023 Superbloom at Carrizo Plain National Monument

Thanks to a cold and rainy winter, California is having another superbloom in 2023. After years of sever drought, California is green and colorful again! April was the best time to appreciate the beautiful wildflowers and the resilience of nature. I went to Carrizo Plain National Monument to enjoy the superbloom and was blown away by the bright colors, aromatic fragrances, vigorous blossoms, and the energy and hope they bring.
