a total elevation difference of 1,264 feet which is about average. Hiyu Trail being so far away from the nearest urban center, when you spend some time hiking here you will feel like a whole new person. High temperatures at Hiyu Trail through the summertime months are in the 80's,

At parts of the year this region sees very little rain, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go. And keep in mind that there could be temporary safety restrictions in site. This backcountry trail has only one trailhead, so in and out is the way to trek it normally.

year December is the one with the most rain; the driest month is July. There's not much difference in elevation along the backpacking trail, so you won’t have to worry about different climate zones along your trek. With its 6.8 miles of walking distance it's an average length backpacking
trail. Keep in mind that this is a long hiking trail, so don't forget to pack enough supplies. Backcountry hiking here in the Central Cascade Range is a really pleasant way to spend quality time in the fresh air. You should count on this hike taking about 6 hours, but you never

Briefly
about the general area:
There are some nice whitewater spots on McKenzie River - South Fork, and some nearby water includes Grasshopper Creek. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Christy Creek, and camping at Echo Campground is always
a wonderful experience.
Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Central Cascade Range. If you came to camp Twin Springs Campground is a splendid place to do that, and Loon Creek is one of the streams close by that might be worth taking a look at.
