Trip Report

I called Ranger fire control at their office on HooDoo Ski Bowl.....541-719-8371......When we learned the southern part of the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness was open and minimal smoke we left for our bac pac......The weather "window" was fine.....Decent views .......The old Santiam trail has not been maintained....It's best to park at the PCT trail entrance off highway 20......Then take the actual PCT trail 1.5 miles to the Santiam Lake trail, which leads to the Berley Lakes.....Great job team .....I thought we worked together nicely....Thx
