Trip Report

Nineteen Obsidians enjoyed a variety of hikes and spectacular scenery in the Columbia Gorge, including Dog Mountain, Angels Rest, Triple Falls, Larch Mountain Crater, Latourell Falls, and Tom McCall Preserve where the wildflowers were at their splendid best. Our accommodations at the Menucha Conference Center were very comfortable, also providing a visual treat in a park-like setting where the Spring shrubs were in full bloom.
Simply "Gorge"-ous!
