Interested in pioneer history? You can almost hear the creak of the wagon wheels coming over Mt. Hood along the Oregon Trail when you visit the historic Laurel Hill Chute and Barlow Road Tollgates on Mt. Hood. Visit Baker Cabin or one of many historic pioneer homes to get a glimpse of daily life in Oregon in the mid 1800s.

Fun for the kids is a ride on the historic Canby Ferry across the Willamette River or a ride along the Willamette between Lake Oswego and Portland on the Willamette Shore Trolley. And, don't miss a ride to the top of the only outdoor municipal elevator in the United States located in historic Oregon City.

You will find one of the Territory's historical sites at the 6,000 ft. level of Mt. Hood - the majestic Timberline Lodge built in the 1930s through the Works Progress Administration and the Civilian Conservation Corps.
