The Upper End is closer to Portland and more spectacular in some ways than the lower Salmonberry River: basically, you trade seeing the main Salmonberry for going over some awesome trestles.

Of course, 2015 is turning into “the winter that wasn’t,” so we don’t even have to wait for March to take the little ones out for a walk.
