Description:

Park in the main parking lot and meet at the gate for trail#1. You must pay for a day pass at the parking kiosk (debit/credit cards only) or have an annual Lane County parks pass on display in your vehicle. We'll hike up to the summit and back on trail #1. I'm planning to do two laps with a weighted pack (recommend 20-40lbs in your pack if you want to use training weight), but you're welcome to join for just one lap and/or hike without weight. The goal will be to finish within 2 hours, which should be right around sunset (bring a headlamp).

Trip Report

It was another beautiful day for a training hike! Our group started up trail #1 at Mount Pisgah beneath clear blue skies. We completed two summits with participants carrying varying amounts of extra training weight. Our group moved at a brisk pace and enjoyed wonderful views of the surrounding valley along the way. All participants completed both summit trips. Members: Tami Darden, Trina Kanewa, Jennifer Marlow, Maryanne Reiter, Doug Sandburg, Kerry Willhite. Non-Members: Theo Davis.
