Powell Butte is about 8 miles from our home, so it's something you would drive to, but totally worth it for a bike ride to the top or a nice hike in the sun. On a clear day, you can see 5 mountains from the top and there is a map that points to each one. It's also a place for spectacular sunsets and views of the city.
