WTA and the Cape Horn Conservancy did a Rake-a-thon for the work party. raking off all leaves to help with drainage and adding water sheds where needed to help standing water run off the low spots on the trail. WTA took on the lower trail segment while the CHC took on the upper segment.
Also, there was a new bridge added this year to keep hikers out of the mud/out of a little creek(s) that develop during the fall and winter months
This 7 something mile trail has a lot from, a waterfall to switchbacks, awesome view spots of the Gorge and it’s easy access to the trail head, it’s right off Hwy 14. Cape Horn is great for kids and dogs (as long as the dogs are leashed). Cape Horn is really an everything trail.
Lastly, the lower segment of the trail is closes from February 1st through July 15th for nesting Peregrine falcons. Still the upper segment is a great in and back out hike with overlooks.
I hope you add this trail to your hike wish list..... Thanks for reading.
