Description:
This is a hike up Cowhorn Mt., on the Willamette Pass just south of Crescent Lake. The 7600-foot summit will give us great views of the Willamette Pass area. The last time I was there the views were obscured by smoke from a fire, so I'm hoping for better views this time. The hike will start at Windigo Pass on the PCT. The hike to the summit is a bit of a scramble, so I've rated this hike as difficult. Notice that I recommend people bring mosquito repellent. Some of us will stop at The Three-Legged Crane for dinner after the hike.
