Be Aware Of
Snow on trail
Weather was mostly clear with some clouds and blowing fog.

Had to hike about a half mile to the trail-head, there was snow all the way down to the parking lot. Snow was probably 6 inches at the bottom, and a foot at the top with drifts in places of 2-3 feet. Very nice dry powder, temps in mid 20's at the top.

Lots of people towards mid-day I would put the number around 1-2 hundred, including kids, dogs and everything in-between.

I hiked with my dog who enjoyed breaking the trail, the trail on the way down was like a super highway. It was a good hike but I plan on avoiding it on weekends in the future too much congestion on the way down.

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.)
