| | A visit to Oregon is not complete without some backcountry backpacking. Backpacking here in Oregon is so much fun. Each backpacking trail in Oregon is well worth a backcountry hike. Trails like this one here in the Central Cascade Range are a really nice way to spend quality time in the fresh air. With its 4.4 miles of walking distance it's a mid length trek. This backcountry walk shouldn't take more than 3.5 hours, but of course some folks walk a bit slower and some a bit faster. And keep in mind that there could be temporary safety restrictions in site. |
