18.5 miles of hiking • 4250' elevation gain •

First time ever to Goat Rocks Wilderness. Did a fabulous loop up Goat Ridge to Hawkeye Point, down past Goat Lake and along the Lily Basin trail, before cutting up to Sawgrass Flats and following the PCT for awhile. Awesome scenery! Wildflowers were at their absolute peak. Full trip report now up on PortlandHikers.

Karl,

I was up there this weekend as well, passed that llama group on the Berry patch trail on Monday afternoon! Great views and flowers, right?

Wow... Great shots. I have heard of that area, but never been up there to explore yet. Thanks for the pics and report. I think you just made my decision for labor day weekend !!! Cheers
