Itinerary description

Pleasant if unremarkable walk. Did out and back, starting at east trailhead (turned around before descent to west trailhead. One nice view of Mt Hood as noted, otherwise in mixed forest. Main virtue is easy access. No other people on trail on Tuesday mid-day. Bridge at Bruin Run Creek unexpectedly closed to vehicles, so first half-mile on blacktop road, then half-mile on abandoned gravel road to actual trailhead. Might be just as well to start at Camp Creek and walk Still Creek trail to get to blacktop road. Parts of actual trail rather steep, especially at beginning. Some faint road noise from Highway 26.
Turn off Highway 26 onto FR 2634 0.2 miles east of Camp Creek campground
