Description
This is nice viewpoint along the Yocum Ridge Trail. It's at mile 4.1 (from the Ramona Falls Trailhead). Watch for a small spur to the right just before the first major switchback on the Yocum Ridge Trail. From here you'll have great views into the Sandy River Canyon, Mount Hood and a vast expanse to the south - including East Zigzag Mountain. There's a small flat area to put a tent, but there is no drinking water. For some this is a great destination in itself!
