Table Rock is a 4,881-foot remnant of the Old Cascades jutting above the Camp Creek and Table Rock Fork of the Molalla River drainages and buttressed by sheer cliffs of lichen-splashed columnar basalt. It is the heart of the 6,028-acre Table Rock Wilderness, administered by the Bureau of Land Management. Much of the route described here was ravaged by fire in the 1880s, but a lush mature coniferous forest now cloaks the slopes. The forest, talus slopes, and dry meadows on top of Table Rock support a diverse flora and views extend from Mount Rainier to the Three Sisters.
