Oregon, Mushroom Hunting and Micro-Brews

Madeline Thomas, a high school friend, welcomed us into Eugene, Or with a wonderful hot meal.  The following day, we were guided by Madeline's boyfriend Cameron, a true flora and fauna aficionado, on a butte summit hike as well as mushroom hunting for Chantrelle mushrooms which were exquisite in a pasta a few nights later.

A night of camping in a desolate Mt. Hood National Park on a river was the next stop.  The following day we hit Portland and enjoyed Dead Guy Ale's at my favorite Portland micro-brew, Rogue.
