When: Tue, Aug 25, 2020 10AM-5PM Where: Meet at trailhead Get Map!
Hiking during COVID-19 pandemic
All participants must wear facial masks and practice social distancing during Senior Healthy Hikers group events.
We will no longer carpool to the trailhead. Participants are responsible for their own transportation.
Driving directions (with the beginning point at Gresham City Hall) will be distributed at least three days prior to the event.
Hike details
Distance: 2.9 miles
Difficulty: Moderate
Elevation gain: 565 feet
Trail conditions: Packed dirt, rocky in places
Round-trip travel: Approximately 125 miles
This hike starts at the 6,525-foot level, so there could be snow patches on the trail. The hike climbs through subalpine meadows to the scarp of Lookout Mountain, then follows the shoulder of the peak through stunted forests until reaching open slopes, rock pinnacles, and expansive views of Mount Hood. At the summit, on a clear day, views of Mt. Jefferson and the Three Sisters are visible to the east, and Mt. Rainier to the north.
Plan to bring water and snacks, along with a sack lunch to enjoy at the summit. Wear good hiking shoes and sunscreen or a hat for the sun, since there is no tree cover at the top. Hiking poles could be helpful, but not necessary.
For more information about this hike please contact Mary Ann Buck at 971-344-1946 or buckbanter@gmail.com.
Senior Healthy Hikers asks that participants be 50 or older. A couple wishing to hike is welcome if one member of the couple is 50 or better.
