Re: Horsetail Creek Trail #425
The section between Oneonta Creek and Bell Creek Trail is now open as is the Bell Creek Trail, so you can now do that loop: https://www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/crgnsa/alerts-notices/?aid=63436 The only CRGNSA trails still closed are Ruckel Creek, Tanner Butte, and Moffett Creek/Wauneka Point. Unfortunate...

Re: Red Shorts dies unexpectedly
This was a shock. I've been away and had been thinking I'll need to check out Petr's latest diversions from the Primrose for the Field Guide. So sorry for all who knew him well. I hope the rest of us can pick up the slack on his endeavors!

Re: Mosier Plateau/Rowena Crest
Sorry for the late reply and not sure why no one else answered this. McCall Point is Nature Conservancy and you can always check their site for news. The trail opens March 1st but the parking area, which fills up early in spring, is open all year.

Re: Reehers Camp trails 03-26-24
The closure was effected on December 23rd and it will probably continue a while. There’s no end date given.

Thanks for the report! It’s a fine ridge to visit in the spring.

Re: Riverside Trail-Ferry Springs Loop (April 7)
Best time to be there! As for the watercress, which is abundant in the somewhat slimy creek, I’d hesitate a tad. All those white stains on the rocks means plenty of fertilizer draining from above.

Re: Reehers Camp trails 03-26-24
about how many miles did you do? It was about 9.2 miles according to my GPS, including short sections off trail on the railroad and logging roads. As for maps, the state doesn't have a current map, the older Gales Creek Trail map available online showing the former alignment of the Step Creek Trail...

Reehers Camp trails 03-26-24
The original plan had been to head up the Gales Creek Trail from Reehers Camp, but we found out that trail was closed between Round Top and Bell Camp roads due to a logging operation, so we hiked the trails below Round Top Road. We took the Gales Creek Trail along the Nehalem River, which crossed at...

Re: Cedar Mill Creek Loop Trail
Thanks. I'll put a note in the Field Guide.
Coincidentally, I revisited that entire excursion in December. The Peterkort section is definitely a highlight, at least looking south from the trail.

Re: Gooseneck Loop (Cottonwood Canyon) 3-20-24
Yes, it's not really a boundary fence but I think a cattle fence, now no longer repaired, that separated a former grazing concession in the canyon from farmland above. Looking down from Peak 1443, you can see a gate in the fence. You could follow the jeep track on the other side as far as a farm roa...
