Multifamily Portland prices had a similar hike from February, with the median price of $667,500 is up from $612,500. Multifamilies spend about eight days on the market. The state median is $268,500.

Shiloh Pond in Kingfield is a relatively small but pristine pond, described by Brent West of the High Peaks Alliance as a good place for fly fishing and hiking. West said when he was younger and working at nearby Sugarloaf Resort, he would often head to Shiloh Pond after work to hike in and do some fishing.
