Arrow Point

From Oregon Hikers Field Guide

Revision as of 18:58, 18 March 2019 by Bobcat (Talk | contribs)

View to Beacon Rock and Bonneville Dam from Arrow Point, Archer Mountain (bobcat)

Description

The narrow, rocky promontory of Arrow Point extends out on the eastern edge of Archer Mountain. The point was scorched by the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire. This exposed viewpoint has a serious downclimb if you want to reach the end. You don’t have to do this, however, to get views across the Columbia River to Horsetail Falls, Oneonta Gorge, Yeon Mountain, and Nesmith Point. On the Washington side, you can see Quiver Point across the steep bowl to the west and down to Franz Lake. Bonneville Dam stretches across the Columbia River upstream from Beacon Rock, and Hamilton Mountain protrudes across the wide, forested bowl of Indian Mary, Duncan, and Woodard Creeks.
