Goose neck trail partial - Cottonwood Canyon SP 12/10/21

Post by ChrisA » December 12th, 2021, 2:53 pm

On Friday we went to Cottonwood Canyon to escape a rainy weekend in Vancouver. My overly ambitious goal was to do a loop consisting of the Goose neck and Pinnacle trails. It was a steady uphill climb to begin with and I think that did me in. Also our mostly sunny day was quickly turning overcast. The trail was not very well travelled, nor well marked, so our progress was slow. Our dog did pick up one tick, although that could have been at the Deschutes River on Saturday.

Following a faint trail. There were pin flags along some areas of the trail.
