Mt Tabor is the remains of volcanic activity. This is port of the Boring Lava Field. There are three other volcanic peaks within Portland. The park's design had Olmstead's step-son as a consultant. Mt Tabor may not be a recognized park by Portland, but has all the trappings of one. During the 1920's, Mt Tabor was the site of KKK activities.

Trips:
  • January 13, 2023 - Day trip to Portland where we visited Voodoo Donuts, Powell's bookstore and Mt Tabor. We then picked up Steven from the airport.
    • We drove most of the way to the top and walked the rest of the 50' to the top. Worthwhile walking the park.

Description:

This hospital was the place where  One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest with Jack Nicholson was shot. Originally the director of the hospital felt the movie would be too demeaning to the patients, but after talking with the director and convincing them to use real patients for some of the crew jobs, he relented. The hospital museum talks about the making of the movie as a small part of its exhibits. The rest of the exhibits talks about the patients, what was trying to be accomplished and the changes in treatment.

From  Wikipedia:a public psychiatric hospital in the U.S. state of Oregon, located in the state's capital city of Salem with a smaller satellite campus in Junction City opened in 2014. Founded in 1862 and constructed in the Kirkbride Plan design in 1883, it is the oldest operating psychiatric hospital in the state of Oregon,[2] and one of the oldest continuously operated hospitals on the West Coast.
