Bachelor Mountain
This is a fall colors hike that climbs gradually on an Old Cascades ridge that has forests of sub-alpine fir and mountain hemlock that opens for many panoramic views to the east. The summit is an old lookout site with terrific views from Mt. Hood south. Mt. Jefferson and Three Fingered Jack dominate the eastern view. Coffin Mountain is to the immediate west. Note: The leader is slowing a bit so declaring a moderate pace is a bit optimistic. Pre-register w/ldr. at dongall39@ comcast.net.
