Trail going up the mountain Pugh
It was beautiful day, blue sky, smell of the fall in the air, so I skiped work and whent to the mountains! I started litle late, but... Trail is very nice and dry to the pass. As soon as you get to the pass compact snow starts on the trail, some deep patches on the edge of the mountain as you get closer to the top. After you hit the rock wall, it is hard to folow the "trail". If you have right equipment and no fear of exposed rock and snow, it is still posible to do it, at least for few more days before next snowfall... well it might be snowing there now... Beautifull day, beautifull mountain!!!

Dog Mountain

South Cascades

Head to Dog Mountain for Columbia River Gorge views and an explosion of wildflowers. Eager to get in shape for summer? Head straight up the mountain on the northern side. Take the slow and steady eastern flank trail to stop and smell the flowers. (See if you can spot recent work by WTA trail crews.)
