Description:

The concept of providing a continuous trail from Eugene, Oregon to the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail began in the early 1970's. While the trail officially opened in 1994, it was never fully completed and not all segments of the trail are connected or completed. But this summer we can hike segments and see if some members can do the whole thing. The first segment leaves Eugene from Skinner's Butte Park and takes us to Day Island Park in Springfield. When we have lunch at Day Island we can talk about doing doing sections like Tire Mountain, the Alpine Trail, the High Divide trail to Waldo, and getting to the PCT from the Bobby Lake Trailhead.

Trip Report

A good start to what can become a theme for this summer's hikes. Doing the entire Eugene to Crest Trail would offer numerous hikes, bike rides, and maybe a paddle to help fill our schedule. This Eugene to Springfield section is just the first step. Some of the today's participants have ideas for parts they might want to lead. Today's walk featured nesting herons, hummingbirds, and a profusion of delphinium.
