Activity Notes

The Elevator Shaft is an unofficial and unmaintained historic trail that is a short direct route up to Multnomah Basin. Much of this area was damaged in the 2017 gorge fire. On this hike, we will scramble 1000+ feet up a mossy, loose boulder field (be prepared for poison oak) and then have some steep bushwacking on unstable ground through prickly vegetation. We will then check out Cougar Rock, Nesika Lodge, and Waespe Point. Our return will be via the Multnomah Basin Road to the Larch Mountain Trail.  Around 8 miles of hiking, 2200 ft of elevation gain, including some steep scrambling and bushwacking. We'll carpool from the MMC parking lot departing at 7:30 am or you can meet us in front of the Multnomah Falls Lodge at 8:10.
