Eagle Creek in search??

Post by Eric Peterson » December 15th, 2011, 7:37 am

Is it possible to search for anything Eagle Creek? Always comes back denied and eagle and creek denied and I need to find some icy pictures from someone that posted about Eagle Creek.

Thanks to previous PHer's I've been using this tip:

Google this:

site:"portlandhikers.org", "eagle creek"

then narrow by desired time frame (say Past week) in the search tools

Same problem with Dog Mountain! It's too bad that site searches (not just on this site!) don't recognize phrases in quotes!

I just googled Eagle Creek Trail and chose the icon from PH, and numerous info and trip reports sprung to life.

Thanks guys for the help, I still couldn't find what I was hoping to find, maybe I
dreamt seeing it in the first place! :)

It was a trip report of some major ice on EC pretty recently, like within the last year maybe
two and the ice was so thick... actually, I remember posting in the thread so I will search
all of my own posts!! :lol:

I had to go to google for "Broken Top," too. The site search rejected "Broken" and searched on "Top." :lol:

Despite these issues, the search on this site is, IMHO, far better than on any other forum I have used!
