Pilot Butte State Park

#takeahike best view in Bend
One of my favorite places to visit in central Oregon
Nice quick side trip with great views.
A heck of a view of the Three Sisters from the top of Pilot Butte. You can get to the top by vehicle or by foot.
You can walk, bike, drive or crawl your way to the top of this steep butte (I think about one mile up). However you get there, you must take in the stunning views as you can see Bend all the way around you and moutains in the distance.
