The 10 best ways to round out your Oregon summer: Peak Northwest podcast


Listen Later

Summer is almost officially over, and while some Oregonians may be eagerly transitioning into fall, there’s still time to get in your final few summer activities.

On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we go over 10 of the best ways to round out an Oregon summer, making sure you make the most of the last days of the season.

While many are oriented around water – hanging out by a river, taking a trip to the coast – there are so many other ways to enjoy the warm, sunny season while it lasts. So before you hang up your swimsuit for your flannel, make sure to get in a couple more summer activities for good measure.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • Sugarpine Drive-In combines two great Oregon summer pastimes.
  • Why late summer is the best time to get into the mountains.
  • This might be the perfect time for a road trip across eastern Oregon.
  • Caves are often associated with the spooky season, but summertime is the best time to get underground.
