Past Activity
Clear Lake & Koosah Falls
-
Start date: 10/26/2024
-
Start time: 8:30 AM
Description:
We'll park at Koosah Falls and head south to Carmen Reservoir, cross the McKenzie river, and pass Koosah and Sahalie on their north sides. Then we'll cross back over the river and take the trail to Clear Lake. We'll circle the lake counter-clockwise (hitting the lava field during the cool of the morning) and stop for lunch when we all agree we're hungry.
Some years it has poured rain on us when we did this hike in October, and other times it's clear and crisp. Either way, we'll have a great time as long as you come prepared for the weather. Remember - there is no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes.
Some of us may stop at Takodas on the way home, so be sure to discuss this ahead of time with your driver.
