Description:

This hike starts out at the Pamelia Lake trailhead and so requires a special limited entry permit plus a NW Forest Pass for your vehicle. Because permits for this trail are only issued 10 days in advance I won't know how many people will be allowed to participate until June 21st. I'll open the trip up to 12 people for now and adjust that number if needed on June 21st. The summit of Grizzly Peak has great close up views of Mt Jefferson. If we have warm weather I plan on stopping at Pamelia Lake on the way back for a short swim. Some of us will be stopping at Takoda's for dinner after the hike so choose your driver accordingly.

Trip Report

The reason I made the hike up Grizzly peak my first hike in July is because it's relatively low elevation of 5800 feet would hopefully ensure snow would not be a problem. However, we did encounter several snow patches on the trail up to the summit, one of them being a bit challenging. Add in a couple of tricky stream crossings plus a rather large log across the trail at our halfway point and this hike was now an adventure. All of our group did make it to the summit for spectacular close up views of Mt Jefferson however we decided not to indulge in our planned swim in Pamelia Lake on account of the cool weather and threatening thunder.
