Trip Report

Tire Mountain has become one of my favorite early summer hikes. I can see why people refer to it as the "other Iron Mountain" for wildflowers. The variety in the fields of blooming wildflowers was amazing to all. The skies were clear enough to see all Three Sisters, Mount Bachelor and Diamond Peak. The part of the trail through old growth forest was the prettiest green many had seen. We hiked to the trail spur that leads to Tire Mountain. Because of the huge and numerous trees on the trail we opted to not do the .6 mile trek to the top.
