About ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that slowly robs a person of the ability to walk, speak, swallow and, eventually, breathe. With no known cause or cure, a person can expect to live typically 2 to 5 years from the time of diagnosis. ALS has no racial, ethnic or socioeconomic boundaries –– and in only 10 percent of cases there is a family history of ALS. Today, there are approximately 30,000 people in the US living with ALS and 5,600 people in the US are diagnosed every year. At any given time, there are an estimated 500 families living with ALS in Oregon and Southwest Washington. About The ALS Association Oregon and SW Washington Chapter Since its inception in 2002, our local chapter of The ALS Association is the central source for services and education for people with ALS, their families, caregivers, and health care professionals in all of Oregon and the six counties of SW Washington.   Contact: Victoria Thompson, Development Coordinator The ALS Association Oregon and SW Washington Chapter 700 NE Multnomah Street,  Suite 1180 Portland, OR 97232 (p) 503.238.5559 x107 | (f) 503.296.5590 | (e) VictoriaThompson@alsa-or.org or  ski@alsnorthwest.org The Downhill Divas team   OCSO team SCHEDULE OF EVENTS March 9th ~ Saturday coaches’ dinner and social time. ~ Racers optional explore Hood River Day March 10th ~ Sunday race day at Mt.

High bike ride Best of Columbia River Gorge Elowah Falls Parking to Viento Park June 15  (Saturday)  - Meet at 9 am.  Leave at 9:30 am sharp. Meet at the Ellowa Falls parking lot on Frontage Rd., very near I-84. Take exit 35 off of I-84, and then continue on Frontage Rd. This little known bike and eBike trail winds thru the best part of the Columbia Gorge where the cliffs are the highest, the vegetation smothers the sides of the trail, and the occasional Bald Eagle or Osprey flies by. Total distance = 20 miles. There is just one long uphill in the middle of the ride has an elevation gain of 561 feet (170 meters). But also, there are several other short uphills and downhills , and the total uphill elevation gain (when you add them all up) is 1,795 feet. This elevation gain can be hard on your muscles and on your lungs.  If you are in good physical shape, you can probably handle it. Also, if you have an electric assist bike, that will help to "smooth out" the hills. We will carpool the 20 miles between start and finish. We just need to take 2 or 3 cars to Viento State Park at the start of the day.  Then at the end of the day, those cars will be used to transport the drivers of the other cars bnack to Ellowah Falls parking lot to feth their cars.  All the cars will then come back to Viento to pick up all our bicycles.

Barlow Pass - the start of our ride.   Just one of many markers along the way.   Hwy. 26 plowed its way right across the original wagon trail.   We'll be riding along mostly paved roads, but also some smooth forest trails. Please RSVP to Emilio Trampuz at: Emilio2000@earthlink.net or 503-510-1477. NOTE ABOUT HIGHWAY CROSSING On some past similar tours, we crossed highway 26 several times.  Some people didn't like it.  We listened. So, on this tour, we will cross highway 26 only once, at the end of the tour, in Zig Zag, and it will be at a marked pedestrian crossing with a red light for cars. Mt. High bike ride History Tour along Barlow Road The original wagon trail Please RSVP to Emilio Trampuz at: Emilio2000@earthlink.net or 503-510-1477. June 29  (Saturday)  - Meet at 8:30 am.  Leave at 9 am sharp. Long running flagship ride hosted by Emilio Trampuz along the path the settlers took to cross the Cascades in search of a new life. Ride the route that the settlers used to make it across this rugged mountain range. Historical stopping points and views all along the way. Last couple of years, there were 15 - 20 riders on this ride.   Each year, this tour is a bit different as we discover new trails. This year, we will follow Lucy's trail for a little while. Just for something new and to avoid biking along a section of highway 26.    We will cross highway 26 only once, and that will be at a marked pedestrian crossing in Zig Zag that includes a red light for all cars.     Where exactly is the Oregon Trail (Barlow Road) around Mt. Hood?   Would you be able to show family or friends which way the wagons went? Come on this free guided bicycle tour and find out. Barlow Road was the only way to get around the south side of Mt. Hood for 71 years, until the old Mt. Hood Loop highway was built in  the 1920s. Both roads are now abandoned (except for a few short segments). When Timberline Lodge was built in the late 1930s, all the building materials and tools were brought up along the old Mt. Hood Loop highway, which we will also ride on. This is all part of Oregon’s history, but it is being neglected.   Find out where these roads are, hear some of the pioneers’ stories, and maybe consider adopting a section, clearing it of fallen trees and branches every year. This was usually the job of the first wagon train of the season. Also, hear a few short stories and excerpts from the pioneers' diaries. A few points of interest along the way: 1. Barlow Pass 2. The best views of Mt. Hood (seen from the old highway) 3. Pioneer Woman's Grave 4. Pioneer Cemetery and the ghost of Perry Vickers. 5. Wagon tracks, still barely discernible in a couple of places. 6. The only bat cave on Mt. Hood 7. Several wagon trail markers along the way. Meet a few minutes before 9:00 am in the Chicali Cantina Parking lot in Welches, on the south side of Hwy. 26. This is part of the set of buildings housing several businesses near the gas station in Welches.  Turn right at the traffic light in Welches, and then drive behind those building and you will see another large parking lot there. Go deep into it. We will need some carpooling from there to transport everyone and all our bicycles up to Barlow Pass.  We will arrange this on the spot. Most people will continue driving in their own cars. We will leave only 2 or 3 cars in Welches. At the end of the bike ride, we’ll have refreshments and/or lunch at the Chicali Cantina in Welches, and then we’ll use the 2 or 3 cars to take us back to fetch our cars at Barlow Pass. In case the Cantina cannot accommodate us (as has happened once before), we will then first fetch our bikes and will then go to Gorilla Growlers in Sandy. We’ll ride on a mix of surfaces, mostly paved, but also some forest trails, and about a mile of gravel road. And later on, another bit of gravel road. Most of the 18 miles will be downhill, but there will be 2 uphill sections. Almost any bike will do, including a commuter bike, a mountain bike, or an e-bike.  As a general rule of thumb, thicker tires would work better.    Bring some water and a snack - like maybe some trial mix, or a small sandwich, or some fruit or a power bar.  We will all need some nourishment before lunch, especially if you haven't had any breakfast in the morning. If you want to participate, please contact Emilio Trampuz at: Emilio2000@earthlink.net or 503-510-1477. Pedestrian bridge to the island at the entrance to the park Biking in the park Mt. High bike ride Minto-Brown Island Park in Salem Please RSVP to Emilio Trampuz at: Emilio2000@earthlink.net or 503-510-1477. July 13 (Saturday)  - Meet at 9:30 am.  Leave at 10 am.  This is a loop ride, so there's no need for shuttling. Minto Brown Island Park is huge at 1205 acres, much larger than New York City's Central Park at 843 acres.  It contains a mix of paved an unpaved trails. It has a playground, a shelter for picnics and events, walking, jogging and bike trails, picnic areas, a dog park, several fishing spots, and a paddle boat area. Some trails follow the Willamette River, others go by a duck pond. We just might see a beaver too. We will also ride through Riverfront Park, which contains a carousel, an amphitheater for concerts, a giant Earth globe and a paddle-boat landing. This is an easy ride. Almost all flat. Almost all paved trails. We might optionally venture on a smooth unpaved dirt trail. Any bike will do. This is Emilio's playground.  Come see the river, the lake, the slew, and more. After the ride, we'll rest and recuperate and enjoy each other's company over some food and drinks.  Perhaps a brunch. Parking is often full at the downtown entrance to the park. So, we will park on the West Salem side of the WIllametter River, where there is excellent and plentiful parking in the shade of old growth trees.  This will also add a bit more park trails and a pedestrian bridge across the Willamette River. We will park and gather at the Wallace Marine Park in West Salem. DIRECTIONS:  Follow I-5 South and take exit 260A onto Salem Parkway. Follow the Parkway as it changes into Commercial St. NE. Approaching downtown, turn RIGHT onto Marion St. bridge Stay in the RIGHT two lanes on the bridge. After the end of the bridge, turn RIGHT onto Wallace Rd. NW. You are now in West Salem. Turn RIGHT at the 5th intersection onto Glen Creek Rd. NW Follow Glen Creek Rd. into Wallace Marine Park. In the park, at a Y intersection, turn RIGHT. Look for parking under large trees providing lots of shade. If you want to participate, please contact Emilio Trampuz at: Emilio2000@earthlink.net or 503-510-1477.   One of the many Steiner cabins. History Happy Hour Steiner Cabins July 20, 2024 (Saturday)  In anticipation of the cabin tour in August, the museum’s monthly Social History Happy Hour lecture will discuss the “History of Mount Hood’s Steiner Cabins.”   The cabins are the work of Henry Steiner, a craftsman who emigrated from Germany and began building mountain homes that relied on the offerings of the natural surroundings. Once a year, the owners of some of the nearly 100 Steiner cabins open their doors to the public. The Mt. Hood Cultural Center and Museum us located on the south side of the main street through Government Camp, next door to the Taco Shoppe and across the street from the Glacier House.   History Happy Hour socials are usually held on the last Saturday of the month at 7 p.m.  Doors open at 6:30 pm. There will be drinks (beer, wine, and soft drinks) available for purchase at the door. The presentation is free.  A $5 donation to the museum is recommended.   Council Crest (Click on image to enlarge it) Sellwood to Stonehenge tower (Click on the map to enlarge it)   Stonehenge tower to Council Crest   Council Crest to Pittock Mansion   Pittock Mansion to Sellwood Mt.
