Description
Schreiner Peak is the highest point in the Bull of the Woods Wilderness. The summit and some of its slopes have been scorched by recent fires. The Schreiner Peak Trail used to lead to the summit, but the trail is now only sporadically maintained as far as the ridge above Lake Lenore.
There are various approaches to the peak, but all involve at least some bushwhacking. You can try to follow the route of the Schreiner Peak Trail along the ridge. Others have bushwhacked up the north ridge from the Collawash River.
Fred Schreiner was an instructor of Logging Engineering at Oregon State College (later Oregon State University). He died in 1934 when still in his 30s.
