The trail to Tom, Dick, and Harry Mountain provides so much bang for the buck! Assuming, of course, you've chosen a clear day. Mt. Adams, Mt. Rainer, Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Jefferson, and, obviously, Mt. Hood are visible from the summit. The six mile jaunt is a perfect day trip from Portland! Pair it with a visit to Mt. Hood Brewery Co. (less than 2 miles from trailhead) or camp for the evening at the family friendly Mirror Lake.
The trailhead is located on Hwy 26 right as you approach Government Camp in Mt. Hood National Forest. From Portland, travel I-84 east and take exit 16 south on NE 238th Dr. Take a left on SE Burnside Rd and stay on as it blends with Mt. Hood Hwy (Hwy 26). There will be plenty of "Mt Hood Scenic Byway" signs to guide you.
