Goat Ridge Meadow

From Oregon Hikers Field Guide

Goat Ridge Meadow from above. This picture is taken from near the top of the Goat Ridge Trail where it joins the Lily Basin Trail. You can see the Goat Ridge Trail at the lower left, just below the stream. A side trail to several campsites is above that. There is a nice campsite next to the tarn.(Jerry Adams)

The Goat Ridge Trail gets fairly difficult just below the meadow area. (Jerry Adams)

Description

Located in the upper Jordan Basin, southwest of Goat Lake near the highest part of Goat Ridge, is a nice alpine meadow area, with a number of nice campsites.

This is a better place to camp than Goat Lake because it is less windy and exposed to the weather if it gets bad. It doesn't say you can't build a fire, but there are so few trees, it would be a shame to do so.

You can get drinking water from the stream next to the trail.

There are a couple other campsites near the trail, within a mile in the direction of Berry Patch Trailhead.
