Description

Added by Brandon Ferreira

A quick huff up a local hill

Roxy Ann Peak has always been a popular spot for joggers, hikers, and locals in general.

The trail is only moderately difficult so anyone, including children and pets, would be able to handle it with ease. The trail turns from paved road, to gravel, to dirt trails as you gain a total of 1,000 feet in elevation.

This 4-mile loop hosts a variety of beautiful views of Mt. McLoughlin and Mt. Ashland as well as the table rocks that tower over the valley. Even more beautiful, is the flourishing wildflowers that can be seen if you visit in the proper seasons.

Those looking for a more difficult hike will have no problem finding it with numerous chances to cut up the hill instead of using the man made switchbacks.

Mount Ashland is a very popular area for many recreational activities, one of the most popular activities is skiing. The ski area was opened up in 1963 and has changed hands numerous times. Although not very known, a beautiful and secluded hike lies on the backside of th...

Hike to Hobart Bluff

Hobart Bluff is part of the Western Cascades, a range of weathered volcanic mountains that are much older than the High Cascades that most people think of today, the range of Shasta, Rainier, and Hood. These mountains are shorter as a result of the work of time and usually have summits wrapped in forest, but not Hobart Bluff. Here, the igneous rock outcrop stands above the manzanita, void of tr...

Backpack to Devil's Peak and the Seven Lakes Basin

Starting at at elevation of 5250 feet, the trail climbs steadily from the trailhead for approximately 3.3 miles to pass at 6900 feet. From here you will come to a junction where going right will lead to Devils Peak and the PCT and going left (straight) will take down into the basin. If you started early I would choose heading down to Cliff Lake first and setting up camp at one of the beautiful ...

Hike to the Summit of Mt. McLoughlin

This is not an easy hike, but every step is more than worth it. Unlike Mount Thielsen to the north, this summit requires no scrambling/climbing; it's just a long, steep hike. Mount McLoughlin (named for John McLoughlin of Hudson's Bay Company and Oregon Trail fame) is a lava cone on top of a composite volcano, inactive for tens of thousands of years. Its slopes bear the marks of glaciation, and...

Mill Creek Falls & Barr Creek Falls

Mill Creek Falls is a lesser-known gem in Southern Oregon. At 173 ft it is one of the tallest in the area, and Barr Creek Falls, plunging 240 ft, is less than a quarter mile further down the trail. The viewpoints can be accessed year-round though flows often fluctuate and spring/winter may best for greater flows. If conditions are right, the falls will freeze/partially freeze offering great pho...
