Why You Should Go Now
Wildflowers blooming
Alpine wildflower meadow
The parking lot was filling up at 9:00 AM. We started out in clouds with occasional sun breaks, and the clouds didn’t lift until we descended from Mason Lake in the afternoon. The wildflowers in the Alpine meadows were the highlight of this incredible hike. The trail is in great shape up to Bandera and Mason Lake. I recommend doing this hike now while the wildflowers are peaking.

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.)
