If the parking lot at the trailhead to your chosen trail is packed, please have a Plan B. PLEASE! Do not squeeze in or double park or park on roadsides when not allowed. This is a huge threat to everybody. #RecreateResponsibly

Next week, take a virtual tour with @pctoregon of some of Mount Hood's more off-the-beaten-path trails where you'll be able to enjoy the mountain safely as we temporarily adjust our hiking habits in light of current health concerns. oregonwild.org/events/webcas…

Bushwhacking through the Gorge backcountry is dangerous due to steep, unstable terrain. Your off-the-beaten-path adventure could put first responders at risk of injury and exposure to COVID-19. Respect the closures. #DoTheRightThingNW

Visiting public lands while facilities are closed can leave major impacts on human health & environment, as trash + human waste accumulate on the landscape. Many small actions have a magnified effect... Help us all protect the areas we love. Respect closures. #DoTheRightThingNW
