Description:

NOTE; IF YOU STILL WANT TO GO, PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL ME BEFORE SAT AT 5 PM; SPACES ARE NOW AVAILABLE. (POSTED 9 AM FRIDAY.

This is the 6th annual Clare Tucker Four in One Cone hike from Scott trail through the volcanic area to the cone itself, where we will have lunch and people will have time if desired to hike the rim, which adds about 0.75 mile or thereabouts. Clare led this hike 14 times.
NOTE: Permit for 6 has been obtained. The next chance I have is late next week to add more. Right now, the limit is 6.Stay tuned.
Hike will be cancelled if fires or smoke are an issue.
It is October, so please have gear for shoulder season—hot or cold, dry or rain. No water of note on the trail, so plan accordingly.
This is a solid moderate hike with constant elevation gain to the volcanic area and then a couple of short steep climbs until we reach the cone, where we ascend 160 vertical feet. Please have good foot gear for the volcanic area. With clear skies, there are nice views of Collier Cone, Black and Yapoah Craters, and the Cascades north to Mt. Hood. If snow has fallen, sometimes the rim has a thin cornice all the way along it. If fog, well, the leader likes that very much, but we will likely eat lunch in the woods.
Would like to be back at the cars 2:30 or 3.

Trip Report

Four non-members and the leader hiked to Four in one Cone as part of the 6th annual Clare Tucker Memorial Hike. The trail had gotten some rain, there was no dust, and we got on top and had lunch before other people showed up. Nice day to be in the wilderness!
