Take a challenging hike in the Columbia Gorge and be rewarded by beautiful scenic vistas, wildflowers, and lush forest.
Level: Strenuous
Distance: 6.5 miles
Elevation Gain: 2,800 feet
Leader: Ani Kame'enui
Location: Washington side of the Columbia Gorge
This challenging hike in the Columbia Gorge takes you up a steep trail on the Washington side of the river. From there, hikers are rewarded with scenic views of the newly minted Lewis and Clark Mount Hood Wilderness. The top of Dog Mountain is due north of the "Gorge Face" unit of the new Columbia River Gorge Wilderness.
Hikers are also treated to wildflowers and lush forest. Not for the
faint of heart, but sometimes you've got to hike high and hard to see
the splendor on the Oregon side of the Columbia.
