Location  Scar Mountain Hike

Where:  Willamette National Forest

 

 ---"This Chemeketan Hike to the Old Cascade Trail Area, led by Ralph Nafzinger, was attended by 15 hikers. Leaving South Salem K-Mart @ 8:00am, we took the Straight Creek Road #11, turning on #1152 to the Gordan Trailhead."

---" After about 1/2 hour on the trail the rain starts and stays with us the rest of the trip. Enjoy lots of wild flowers, particularly one that is new to the group, Harebell or Scouler's Bellflower. The view from the top ridge is lost in the mist and rain."
Statistics for the day: distance 6.2 miles, time 3 3/4 hours, cumulative climb 1350 feet.
