Trip Report

A warm morning stroll from the main parking lot to the east entrance and back was good way to start the day. We stopped at two miles and took a look at where some trail improvements and realignments will be done. This hike was perhaps the easiest part of the Eugene to Crest Trail we are doing this year. We should probably do it several times this summer. It's a pleasant walk to take between the more strenuous hikes being done.
