Description:

DEPARTURE TIME: 9:00 a.m.
MEETING PLACE: The parking lot near McDonalds at 58th and Main, Thurston and carpool to the Eastside Trailhead.
Our hike will begin from the East trailhead off Dery Road. There is a porta-potty there. We will start on Trail #2 and then take a combination of trails to the Summit, gradually gaining elevation through open meadows and the forest. At the summit we will take a snack/lunch break and then descend down Trail 6 and loop back to our starting point. Please be aware there is no pay station on that side. If you are going to drive, be sure to either have an Annual Lane County Parks Pass or you can purchase a day pass online for that day. Both the leader and co-leader are driving. Since there will only be 10 of us at most, we can probably squeeze into two vehicles for the 10" ride each way.

Trip Report

Five of us met at the Albertson's parking lot at 58th and Main, did the paperwork and introductions and then headed to the East Trailhead of Mt. Pisgah. We proceeded to the summit via Trail 6 where, due to fog and low clouds, we were not afforded the usual sweeping views that we are all used to enjoying. After a brief rest, we headed down the trail and turned right to follow Trail 2 down the mountain and back to our cars. Just as we arrived at them, the sun began to peek through at last. However, the conditions were ideal for hiking and we certainly enjoyed not being overheated. All in all a pleasant way to spend a morning.
