Urban trails offer ever-changing landscape

non to "train" for our mountain hiking season (which has started but more on that later). After several weeks of walking the Eastern Prom and Bayside trails we've discovered there is an ever changing guerilla art (a.k.a. graffiti)landscape. Each week there seems to be something new on these trails.

I know this sort of thing should not necessarily be encouraged but now that we've become trail regular we've learned to keep an eye out for what has changed. Sort of the old Highlights children's magazine feature to figure out what's different between two pictures.

I made an interactive map and took photos along the way of the art that struck our fancy this week.

Portland Trails "art" walk

Our weekly visits have confirmed that even though urban trails are less challenging that our mountain hikes, they have something unique to offer with an ever changing - and colorful - landscape.
