Moving out to Oregon for a job: near the cesspool called Portland. Any suggestions on places to hike for someone who has never been in the NW.

A little far out from Portland, but Wallowa-Whitman National Forest is worth the drive in my opinion.

Everything around Mt Hood is amazing. Just live there for a year and explore it. You'll keep finding new trails. If you can get to Multnomah on a less crowded day, I would say it's worth the visit.

Eagle creek is a great one.

The McKenzie Pass, Camp Sherman, and Three Sisters
Newberry National Volcanic Monument.

If you want to go really far out go out east, to the Ochoco National Forest, and Malheur National Forest.

I’m curious about Oregon as well, specifically the eastern part of the state, in the rain shadow of the Cascades. The mountains are nice, but there has to be stuff going on in the desert, right?

Pretty much everywhere in California is two hours or less from a city of 300k people. There are way too many people.

Has anyone hiked Mount Saint Helens? I have a few questions about the park.
- Can you in the crater where the explosion happened? I know its still "active" but is there any danger or rules against doing it.
- Is there snow on top of the mountain all year around? Just need to know if I need crampons or microspikes.

Arnold Ice Cave.
Lava River Cave
Skylight Cave
Redmond Caves
Fort Rock Cave
Derrick Cave
Boyd Cave

Sea Lion Caves, Skeleton Cave, Oregon Caves, and Newberry are all tour lead I believe.

Climbing requires a permit that's a pain to get, but spots open up on short notice as people give them up. Even if you can't summit there are amazing hikes all around the mountain. It's one of my favorite places.

It's a long way out from Portland, but the Rogue River Trail is probably the best trail in southern Oregon (starting just outside Grants Pass and going basically all the way to the coast). The weather during the summer is similar to northern California so it's very comfortable. It's also a world-class whitewater rapids area.

Only worth going on an off day. Especially when the trail narrows, it's not fun having to hug the rock wall cause some man shaped like a bowling ball is taking up the whole path.

Olympic is top tier, but overcrowded. Cascades are worth the drive. I recommend any trail overlooking the Skagit River. The prominence of the mountains around make the view breathtaking.
