Activity Notes

Not for novice hikers! This dramatic loop hike at Cottonwood Canyon State Park starts out gentle, but it's mostly off-trail scrambling, with two steep descents. Be tick-safe, rattlesnake-aware, and wind-ready. For our efforts, we may see bighorn sheep, and we'll definitely see wind turbines and lots of John Day River geology. 9 miles, 1,500 ft.
