Activity Notes

Our Hike:

Here is the All Trails track for our hike. Our hike will be about 12 miles with 1900 feet of elevation change. We will do the elevation first to get our views of the lake below and hopefully Mt. St. Helens. From the ridge, there is a rather steep and narrow decline to the bridge, our halfway point. From there it is a relatively flat 6 miles back to the parking lot. 

Parking:

A Northwest Forest Pass is required to park. 

Meeting Point:

Let's meet at the Salmon Creek Park and Ride on the north side of Vancouver. This is located at the junction of I-5 and I-205. Meeting time is 7:30 AM
