The trails have been beat down from all the use but very nicely picked up from the parks folks ton of debris after the wind and ice storms. I'm sure it's underfunded it could use a revamp on the trails they get a little muddy in the rain. But there's plenty of figure 8 loops around the whole mountain that takes an hour or so, it's one of the better parks in Portland for sure! Great views looking west of downtown, good spot to just get out in the open in the Sun with views by The upper west reservoir as well.
We grew up at the foot of Mt. Talbert but were never allowed to cross the creek and climb to the top. It was a rigorous hike to the top but I was sad there was no "outlook" once we got there. On the other hand it encouraged everyone just to head back down and not linger. It was wonderful to see it from the other side. Thank you!
