Labor Day Hike & Lunch at Nesika Lodge: Trails Club of Oregon Membership Hike

This loop hike is intended as an introductory trip to meet Trails Club of Oregon and/or for folks who haven’t visited Nesika Lodge before – a chance for new folks to join in!

MEET:
We’ll meet 9+ miles up E Larch Mountain Road (45.5397704, -122.1169786) – right near the Larch Mountain Road snow gate – we’ll be here on the left. We’ll unlock the gate and drive to a spot 3.5 miles from the Lodge to park. The hike from there will be Devils Rest, Wahkeena, Multnomah Creekway, Highwater and Nesika Road and back along a dirt/gravel road. 8ish miles round trip, around 1,800 feet elevation change.

On the way to the Lodge, we’ll visit the hidden ornament trail. If you’re into it, do some research to see if you can figure out where it is ahead of time 😉

We’ll stop for a nice lunch break at Nesika Lodge. Bring your own lunch; our hosts will share goodies and drinks. This hike fulfills qualifications for Trails Club of Oregon membership for those wanting to join the Club (trailsclub.org).

As always, bring 10 essentials, food and water, dress for weather and practice leave no trace.

$2 CASH ONLY to leader for non-members of Trails Club of Oregon
