What we love about Oregon: From big trees to fried fish

Listen Later

What do we love about Oregon? A whole lot, as it turns out.

On this week’s episode of the Peak Northwest podcast, we honor Oregon’s birthday and Valentine’s Day with a love letter to our favorite state. It’s not just the resplendent nature — from quiet forests to majestic mountains to magical desert rivers — we love just about every part of this state, right down to the fried fish.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • It’s hard to pick, but these are our favorite Oregon landscapes.
  • Why small towns have some of the best charm.
  • Is Portland the perfect city?
  • Oregon’s world-class food scene is spoiling us.
