travelers stories about Mountain in Pittock Mansion, United States

Mountain in Pittock Mansion, United States

  3 km from Portland


This is the view from the Pittock Mansion in Portland, Oregon. Right before the sunset, the city’s skyline is at its absolute best with Mount Hood with all its glory. I know there are many many versions of the same photo on the internet but who cares. It is a beautiful view that deserves the fame.

travelers stories about Bridge in 4600 Mill St, United States

Bridge in 4600 Mill St, United States

  19 km from Portland


This is one of the oldest hydroelectric plants in the world, located in Oregon City, Oregon, on the Willamette River. I love old industrial places--especially when they're still in operation. Fun fact: This is where the first long-distance power lines in the United States--outside of Thomas Edison's Menlo Park--were installed, carrying electricity to Portland.

travelers stories about Wildlife in Abiqua Falls, United States

Wildlife in Abiqua Falls, United States

  66 km from Portland


Abiqua falls is difficult to reach. First, you have to reach the middle of nowhere. Then, you take a thoroughly messed up “road” on foot or by car. Finally, you have to scramble down a hill, and about 1/4 mile over rocks next to a river. At least you reach Abiqua. Yeah, it’s worth it. This was by far my favorite waterfall I’ve ever experienced – go if you can do so carefully! The best waterfall experience was followed up with a pretty strange one: a group of people decided to take up target practice with rifles next to our car. This area isn’t a part of a park so it’s unprotected.

travelers stories about Hill in Vineyards, United States

Hill in Vineyards, United States

  66 km from Portland


Wine lovers: This is your happy place. Wine country in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, at sunset. Whenever I fly my drone, I usually take a photo right after taking off and one right before landing. These are usually throw-away photos that simply help me remember exactly where I was at in case I want to go back. However, this shot of the vineyards scattered over those rolling fields was worthy of sharing.

travelers stories about Camping in Lost Lake, United States

Camping in Lost Lake, United States

  68 km from Portland


My family friends invited me to come with them to Lost Lake near Mt. Hood for a weekend. I decided to take my camera with me and find any shots I thought were cool. As the day was dying down, everyone went to bed and I sat there into the morning hours watching the flames wave back and forth with the breeze. I love this shot as it makes you feel like you are in the warm embrace of the fire, filled with energy.

Mountain in Trillium Lake, United States

  78 km from Portland


In our first Unsplash Expedition in Portland, we hiked to Trillium Lake in the Mt Hood National Forest. It was a lot of fun to hike to and walk on a frozen lake with fellow photographers, even if the weather wasn’t the best.

Finally looks like winter is giving us a break, so I drove today to Mt St Helens. Having a volcano that erupted in the 80s in your backyard is a surreal experience.

travelers stories about Waterfall in Tamanawas Falls, United States

Waterfall in Tamanawas Falls, United States

  86 km from Portland


Tamanawas Falls, a spectacular hidden gem, nestled in the foothills of Mt. Hood, having driven past many times, we decided that we should finally take a look for ourselves at this majestic waterfall. After a 2 mile hike, the stop was well worth it, and the absence of people added even more to the pristine and beautiful falls that met us at the end of the trail.

We were driving from Portland down to Bend and we were really excited to pass by Mount Hood. Once we got a a nice view of it from this angle I knew that this one would be my favorite shot I took of it. This was shot from the highway just off side of the road.

Beach in Tierra Del Mar, United States

My wife and I spent an incredible evening along the Oregon Coast. We drove our Subaru Crosstrek on the sand and set up our beach camp. We made a fire and cooked dinner on next to the ocean, finished off by a bottle of wine and s’mores as we watched the sun dip below the cloud line.

We pulled our car over to watch the sun go down over the pacific ocean by the Oregon coast. Noticed two individuals climb past the “do not pass” fence to get closer to the ocean.
