Pablo went hiking February 1, 2014 11 miles 4,500 feet gained
Started from Eagle Creek, went over to Cascade Locks and hopped on the PCT. On up Rudolph, did not take the trail after the 2700' viewpoint but continued following the ridge - great views along this route. A couple of hikers ahead of me (never saw them) broke trail heading towards the Benson Platter through the 2-3 inches of snow . Returned on Ruckel Creek Trail with melting snow raining on my head. ~5.5 hours round trip.
