Lewis River Trail
Posted: May 3rd, 2023, 6:32 pm
Time for my annual spring Lewis River trip. The trail is open and cleared of logs at least as far as Middle Falls. I hiked from the 9039 trailhead to camp just after the Road 90 crossing, about one mile below Lower Falls, and strolled up there after dinner. I think this is one of the few trails in the Gifford Pinchot NF that is open and cleared yet.
- Trailhead
- Lewis River at the Bolt Shelter - river is running fairly high
- A nice nursery log
- side creeks running high too - not easy to keep the boots dry this trip
- Balanced log is still there
- Log crossing near Cussed Hollow
- Shelf Camp, nine miles in
- Lower Falls of the Lewis River
- Lower Falls of the Lewis River
