Upcoming activity
Hardesty Mountain
-
Start date: 11/09/2025
-
Start time: 8:00 AM
Description:
After the recent windy conditions there could be some deadfall to contend with. The trail climbs to an open ridge with a large meadow from which nearby Mount June can be seen. At the north end of the meadow is Sawtooth Rock which is an interesting rock formation which we will pass. The last two miles of the trail will be exploratory as I've not yet had the pleasure of walking that section yet. We will take a snack break at the top of Hardesty Mountain which used to have a fire lookout structure. The peak is overgrown and thus has no view. We will return the way we came. The hike is rated difficult for distance on this well-designed trail.
We will meet at the LCC east parking lot and leave promptly at 8:00. Take Hwy 58 to Dexter, right at Rattlesnake Road for 6.4 miles, left at Eagles Rest Road for 8.8 miles. We park at the Lost Creek Trailhead.
