Oregon - Mount Hood - Hiking Way Up in the Windy Highland
My goal of these wilderness trail videos is to 1) show reverence for the beauty of the land, and 2) give YOU actionable trail information that can assist you in planning your own hike here.
This was a day-hike in Oregon, Mount Hood Wilderness, starting at Top Spur Trailhead and briefly going to the Mount Hood Viewpoint South of Mount Baldy before turning around and doing the lion’s share of the hike exploring the NW quadrant of Timberline Trail to Elk Cove as an out and back day-hike of approximately 16 miles. Weather was a low in the low 30's, high in the 50's, overcast day and very windy. This was hiked on 9/12/2021, trail was completely clear of snow, and there were NO Mosquitoes! On Alltrails this hike is called "Timberline Trail Around Mount Hood", with a focus on the NW Quadrant. As far as road conditions, it's highway until a turnoff paved road that isn’t too bumpy but does have some large pot holes in the middle of it periodically you need to swerve around. The last 1.5 miles is gravel and very doable but requires cautious and slow driving, particularly around somewhat blind corners and a narrow road. In my opinion, the road DOES NOT require 4-Wheel Drive. As far as permits, the Top Spur Trailhead DOES NOT require a Recreation.gov permit.
