Vanson Peak, Goat Creek Loop & Goat Creek — Monday, Jun. 24, 2019

South Cascades > White Pass/Cowlitz River Valley

I tried to hike Vanson Peak for my first day of my first research trip of 2019, but unfortunately, the very last section of Road 2750 is under construction. Because the “Road Closed” sign was off to the side of the road, with room cars to pass, I took a chance and headed up, but two miles in ran into a guy running a tractor.

He was nice; saying I was welcome to park on the other side of the Road Closed sign and hike up the road, but that would have added 9 miles to an already long hike with a very late start, so I opted to switch to my Tuesday itinerary instead.

What I did see of the road looks great. Exciting that this road is getting some attention!
