West powell Loop TH at Holgate
Posted: January 22nd, 2023, 1:25 pm
Your Powell Butte West Loop Hike begins at the Holgate Blvd TH. We did this one on Friday, but before we went I thought I would scope out the parking at that spot. Looking at Google Street View, there is very little. I switched us the the TH at 148th, which is right on your route.
We stopped by the Holgate TH near the end of the loop and saw that things had changed since the Street View picture was taken. Several NO PARKING signs and four dumpsters now occupy that space. One senses some neighborhood hostility.
You might put a note on top of the West Powell Butte Loop page and tell people to park at 148th. Since the Street View picture of that lot, some cement dividers have been added so that there is space for 10-12 cars.
