Trip Report

Cape Horn — Saturday, Jan. 26, 2019

Southwest Washington > Columbia River Gorge - WA

Note: This is the last week to hike the lower section until July. We hiked this clockwise, using the upper trail first. The fog made the trees ghostly and highlighted the spider webs on the maple tree trunks.

At the top the trail is slippery but easily manageable with trekking poles. The trail has been well brushed so there aren't any branches or blackberry brambles sticking into the trail. We saw a fair amount of dogs on the trail but there is one section on the lower trail that is not dog friendly. Also, you really should keep your dogs on a leash on this trail because of the sheer cliffs.
