Ever been to Banks, Oregon? Well, not that many can say they have. Banks is a nice quiet little town about 30 miles west of Portland. This hunt will take you on a little tour through town. All of the stops are in order (no back tracking), very little walking is involved and the total distance of the hunt from start to finish is roughly a mile and a half. |
