Snow on trail
The road to the trail head is clear of snow and in good shape. Headed up the trail where patches of snow started at about the 1/2 mile mark. Snow cover thickens and becomes fairly deep by the first switchback. About 1/2 mile from the top of the ridge to Mason Lake the track ends and to continue means lots of post holing. I continued up Bandera, but the snow got too mushy and deep and my gaiters weren't working very well. Great hike and great views.

Dog Mountain (May 23)

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.)
