Description:

Description: Turn right at the sign for West Summit Trailhead and follow pay fee signs. We meet near the gate and pay station. . Depending on weather, I plan to take back trails to the summit, avoiding the main trail #1. Mileage and elevation could vary but around 6 miles at a steady pace. Estimated time is 3 hours so bring snacks. Email me at jbjacobsen@comcast.net if you have questions.

If you don’t have a Lane County pass allow time to purchase one at the pay station by trailhead. To buy an annual pass and support the trails, check out the websites for Friends of the Buford Park ($50.00) or Mt. Pisgah Arboretum. ($50.00/$40.00 for seniors).

Trip Report

Dorene, Dave and Carla Cooper who made it possible to divide into groups giving us more flexibility to spread out and go our own pace. It was a beautiful sunny and warm day to hike the back trails where we encountered few people. The parking lot was "sold out" when we returned to our car. Thanks to Vicki who shared cookies at the summit.
