I took a walk with my wife yesterday to see what route to take to her work. If we hop a short fence at the apartment, cross the railroad tracks, cross the intersection, and take some stairs that lead to a short field in front of her work, it's a 4 minute walk. I'd estimate her work is a good 40ft in elevation compared to the apartment.

We then walked to the Oregon Garden, and I'd estimate that is 100 ft higher than the apartment. I might be "volunteering" at the garden soon. Perhaps they have some tall trees that need some pruning, and a solar panel with antenna. I can see the valley from up there.
