Cape Horn — Thursday, Aug. 17, 2023

Southwest Washington > Columbia River Gorge - WA

Previous trip report from 7/20 is awesome so just adding a few additional points to consider:

1) The loop is great but if strapped for time you can just go to the first lookout and head back.

2) If you slightly less strapped for time then I would strongly encourage going back down and heading over to Cape Horn Falls. Especially this time of year they are like a luxury shower of cool water on a hot day :)

3) And if you are somewhere between 1 and 2, then you could hike the top part but then drive down to the landing and hike to the falls from there.

- And of course the entire loop is great, too!

I did the loop and it came out as 6.8 miles with 1,575 feet of gain fwiw

Did you find this trip report helpful?
