Mount Jupiter — Sunday, Sep. 4, 2022

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal
Summit vista

Mount Jupiter was a lovely and challenging day hike that presented a few logistical challenges.  The start of the hike is on private gated logging road for 2.5 miles.  We packed bikes for that section and it worked great. The views are well worth the effort and there are many wild blueberries and huckleberries along the way.  The bugs weren’t bad, but spiderwebs were prevalent along the narrow wooded parts of the trail.  I would do it again for the view on a clear day.  rocky exposed trails at the top could be difficult in bad weather that can change quickly.
