Oregon Hikers

First, a disclaimer! Got all the way up to the "Unknown Pioneer Woman's Grave" before realizing that I had left the memory card for my camera in my PC at home. So today, we get cell phone camera shots (no zoom, no focus)...sorry in advance! Started at the Hood River Meadows Trailhead, with only a co...

This was the best shot I had of Mt. Margaret from 7/10.

Aaron, when you hiked past the arch, did you notice the smell of animal? I could smell maybe elk? most of the way up to the peak. I kept thinking it was horse but knew they weren't allowed up there, then I saw some droppings on the trail. There were four or five times when the "petting zoo" smell w...

I'm bumping an older thread to see if anyone has been back to the summit Coldwater Peak. I'm thinking of heading up there tomorrow. I think I'll throw in the micro spikes in case I encounter snow. Thanks for the TR! Happy I checked this thread last night and saw your post! Was neat meeting you on t...

Thanks Turtle!

Appreciate the reply and will try to get a report up after.

Hey everyone! Was wondering if any of you could let me know what the conditions from Top Spur up to McNeil Point are like snow-wise. I read Turtle's report from the 22nd, but honestly I am not familiar with "Tourist Ridge" or the meadows to know what/where the snow is starting and how bad it is. I'm...

Thanks guys!

Think we are going to give it a shot from Timberline. I will definitely post up a report when we get back!

Hey everyone! I was looking at staying overnight in Paradise Park this Tuesday (7/17) and was wondering if anyone knows the status of the Timberline Trail from the Lodge out to PP. Saw the recent trail report on the conditions of Paradise Park itself, but it was from Ramona Falls up. Looks like PP i...
