Well… The rain appears to have left the forecast, the southern-most section of the Washington PCT appears to be mostly clear of snow, and I’m free until I start a new job on Monday. 🤔

A view of Turpentine Peak from near the Mountain View Shelter in the Maxwell Sno-park. The snow-covered peak rises above a forest of tall green trees. A tall noble fir stands in the foreground. Clear blue skies. Photo taken February 28, 2025, in the Central Oregon Cascades.

I was looking at this mountain yesterday on the map and thought, “I wonder if I can summit this?” After six hours of hiking this morning I can finally see the approach. I’m in the Columbia River Gorge. Which mountain is this? I started at sea level to get this far. You have until I reach the summit to guess!

Nice partially obstructed view of Mount Adams on the summit of Greenleaf Peak. Time to get out of the wind and find a place to camp.

After leaving the peak, I went looking for an ancient cedar grove on the plateau between Greenleaf Peak and Table Mountain. I lost steam last night but I found them this morning at first light. Head down the abandoned road southwest of Greenleaf Peak and you can’t miss them when you arrive at the first creek.
