Description:

Update: THE TRIP IS RESCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY, NOV 20. Weather forecast is much better. Look for us by my car a row or two down from the fee box. Sunset is 4:40 pm and moonrise is at 4:16 pm. I plan to take the main trail to the summit. Email me at jbjacobsen@comcast.net if you have questions. If you don’t have a Lane County pass allow time to purchase one with Debit/Credit card (no cash) at the pay station by trailhead. To buy an annual pass and support the trails, check out the websites for Friends of the Buford Park ($50.00) or Mt. Pisgah Arboretum. ($50.00/$40.00 for seniors). The full moon is the 22nd but I opted to schedule the hike EARLIER.
