Park Butte — Thursday, Aug. 10, 2023

I hiked with my teenage son for an overnight trip.  Wish we had brought more warm clothes because it was very cold and damp at the top.  Fog cleared at sunset for amazing views!  When we returned the next day to our truck to leave there were so many cars parked along both sides of the forest road below the parking area and the gap to drive through was very tight.  About 8 inches on each side of my truck to squeeze through the narrowest part of the road due to too many cars along the road and sticking out.  Please make sure you park as far off the roadway as possible so as to not create such a tight funnel that vehicles can’t drive through.
