Ok, this is not a hike or camping trip but still worth mentioning just for the fun of it. This past weekend was the second time that Red Bull brings to Portland the Flugtag. For those of you who have never heard of this before, this is a competition style event where teams of five people have to build a flying machine. Then, the day of the show, the get to do a little sketch on the platform before pushing their contraption on a 100 feet deck to try to make it fly as far as it will go (pilot included) until it lands or crashes into the water 30 feet below. The idea is to fly as far as they can. Most of them actually crash making it very funny. Just take a look at some of the pictures and you’ll get an idea.
