Middle Pyramid Hike

Join me for one of my favorite hikes. This is a short but strenuous hike keeping in mind that the leader is slowing down a bit and will be taking lots of oxygen breaks. We switchback up a ridge in the Old Cascades to reach the old lookout site near the summit of the Middle Pyramid. The flowers of summer will be gone but the area will be glowing in fall colors. On a clear day we will have a panorama from Diamond Peak to Mt. Hood with a fabulous view of the Three Sisters.
