Description:
This trail climbs to the site of an old lookout (now replaced by a cell phone relay) with a nice view of the McKenzie Valley, the Old Cascades, Mt. Washington and the Three Sisters. The well-graded trail passes through a pleasant forest of Douglas fir and mountain hemlock. After 4 miles, the trail crosses a road, then switchbacks another 1.7 miles up a forested slope to the ridgetop and rocky summit. Weather permitting, we will have good views with our lunch. We will proceed at a steady, relaxed pace and pause periodically to keep the group together. Notes: Mountain bikers may be sharing the trail. There are no restrooms at the trailhead. If poor weather is forecast, I may substitute a hike at Mt. Pisgah. A stop at Takoda’s Restaurant is an option after the hike.
