Franklin Ridge Loop

Activity Notes

Please note that there are route changes from the original posting. ... (Unanticipated trail closures, etc.  would have made Franklin Loop at 14 miler, with 3200 elevation gain. Also the fireweed up on the ridge--everyone would have hated it except for maybe Kurt! So let's go with Devils-Wahkeena Loop.   Hiking up from Wahkeena trailhead to Devils Rest, then down the Foxglove trail to  Trail 400. (Heading over to Angels Rest may be an option, if there's time) 7 or 8 miles, depending on how we make the loop.   E.G. 2350 feet. Here's a description and a map of this loop hike. https://www.oregonhikers.org/field_guide/Devils_Rest_via_Wahkeena_Hike See you 7:50 a.m. Wednesday! Gary
