Description:
NOTE time change as of June 7th. The parking lot will be crowded. Look for us by my car a row or two down from the fee box. Sunset is 8:59pm. I plan to take trail 17 and 4 to catch the main trail to the summit. Our goal is to view the rays of the sunset shining through the Mt. Pisgah Sighting Pedestal. We will take the main trail (#1) back to the parking lot. Optional to bring snacks. For more about the pedestal, see the sculptor's website, Peter Helzer. 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).
