Your friendly, passionate, knowledgeable guide sets a relaxed pace, breaking trail through old-growth trees while sharing stories about the mountain’s history, winter ecology, snow science, and how Oregon’s snowpack sustains the rivers below. Around midday, we stop for a simple picnic lunch of warm soup and bread in the snow before returning along the same route, descending back toward the trailhead as the forest opens into sweeping views of the northeast side of Mt. Hood.
