Powell Butte, Mountain summit in Multnomah County, United States
Powell Butte features a network of trails across 611 acres of meadowland and forest, reaching an elevation of 612 feet in eastern Portland.
The city purchased the land in 1925 from George Wilson for water reservoirs, while farming operations continued on the site until 1948.
A Mountain Finder circle at the summit displays the names, elevations, and distances of visible peaks including Mount Saint Helens and Mount Adams.
The park maintains specific hours from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily, with seasonal variations for vehicle access to the parking area.
From the summit of this 10-million-year-old extinct cinder cone volcano, visitors can observe Mount Jefferson, Mount Hood, and Olallie Butte.
