WINTER SNOW 4K ADVENTURE HIKE Ascending to Tom, Dick & Harry Mountain Summit! | Mount Hood | Oregon
This was a Day-Hike in Oregon, Mount Hood National Forest & Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness, starting at Mirror Lake Trailhead, hiking up to Mirror Lake, circumnavigating the lake, and continuing on up to the Summit of Tom Dick & Harry Mountain yielding INCREDIBLE VIEWS across the way of Mount Hood (Tallest Mountain in Oregon - 11,249 FT)! Adding a few highlight side jaunts along the trail, it totals approximately 9.2 miles and 1700 FT Elevation Gain out and back roundtrip. The Summit of Tom, Dick & Harry Mountain is 4997 FT, pretty low by wilderness standards, and is JUST 3 FEET SHORT of the 5000 FT Alpine Zone Threshold, making the entire hike technically subalpine! It was a sheet of dangerous and treacherous ice on much of the trail, so Yaktrax or Microspikes or some sort of foot traction device IS REQUIRED as far as I'm concerned, I personally would not even risk attempting it without foot traction devices! The sky was blue with moderate wind with a temperature of 32F and 24F with wind chill. This was hiked on 11/24/2022 (Thanksgiving!), and there were of NO Mosquitoes given the season.
As far as road conditions, it's highway and well paved roads until the parking lot, so it was a very easy and safe driving route. In my opinion, the road most definitely DOES NOT require 4-Wheel Drive, however do watch for road conditions, particularly snow/ice depending on the time of year, and do so at your own risk!
