12.5 miles of hiking • 3250' elevation gain •

Superb day, high 60's, clear skies and views of Portland to the Coast range. We thought we would finish after dark, but we made it back just after 5pm and it was still light out. Spent about 30 mins at the top eating lunch and taking pictures. The entire hike is mostly through lush and thick forest, with a nice ridgeline walk towards the top through plenty of rhododendron bushes and beargrass. Several side trails off the roadwalk section warrant further exploration, particularly one dropping down towards the S. Fork Salmon River.
