Itinerary description
This is a little known trail to Owl Point. It was an abandoned old trail that was rescued in 2007 by volunteers. The trail takes you to Owl Point for a fantastic panoramic view of Mt Hood's north face -- a somewhat unusual vantage point. From Owl Point you can appreciate the damage of the huge 2011 Dollar Lake fire. A small detour to the Rockpile offers a very nice view as well. It is a relatively short and easy, but very rewarding, hike.
