6.5 miles of hiking • 2500' elevation gain •
Looking for a shortcut from Wahclella TH to the 777 rd. Got to the 777 road and went on up the powerline access road to the ridge going south. Landed on the Wauna Pt trail to return on Tanner Butte. The shortcut was more interesting than the 400 but not as fast in spite of the 400's long switchbacks. There's another route to explore from near the flume above the parking lot.
