I thanked Mark for all his hospitality and bid him adieu.<\/p>\n<p>I think there\u2019s only one gas station in Maupin and when I pulled in I don\u2019t see any premium. \u201cLooking for the good stuff?\u201d asked the proprietor.

The morning was bright and cloudless and afforded beautiful views of Mt. Hood. It looked to be another wonderful day, much in contrast to my Mt. St. Helens hike.<\/p>\n<p>Once on the trail, I couldn\u2019t help but notice that they mark trails here differently than in RMNP. The signs indicate which trail (by trail number) you\u2019re following rather than telling the hiker what the trail\u2019s destination is. That caused me a bit of confusion. I knew I wanted to go to Paradise Park, but I wasn\u2019t sure what trail led me there. I was fairly certain I needed to take the Pacific Crest Trail but I had a nagging doubt. I soon caught up to another hiker who said he was going to Paradise Park as well. I was happy to have confirmation that I was headed the right direction.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1388\" style=\"width: 227px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6076s\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1388\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1388\" data-attachment-id=\"1388\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6076s\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?fit=800%2C1103\" data-orig-size=\"800,1103\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;9&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 20D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1409567683&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;35&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6076s\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?fit=584%2C806\" class=\"wp-image-1388 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?resize=217%2C300\" alt=\"IMG_6076s\" width=\"217\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?resize=217%2C300 217w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?resize=742%2C1024 742w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?resize=624%2C860 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6076s.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 217px) 100vw, 217px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mt.

There were quite a few people in the parking lot with skis or snowboards but I only saw a few actually on the lift. I put boots on the trail at 9:30. It was still quite cool, I wore both a windbreaker and a hoodie. With the sun shining brightly, it wasn\u2019t long before I shed one then the other. The first section of trail had nice views of Hood and Jefferson, but otherwise there\u2019s not much to see. The trail contours around the mountain clockwise, through some scraggly trees, under the chair lifts, and past a communication tower before entering the forest proper.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, the trail was generally sandy. There were very few big roots and not many rocks except near the lodge. It was easy to maintain a good stride and I moved efficiently. More about this later.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1389\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6077s\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1389\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1389\" data-attachment-id=\"1389\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6077s\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?fit=1200%2C716\" data-orig-size=\"1200,716\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;11&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 20D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1409567823&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;70&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6077s\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?fit=584%2C348\" class=\"wp-image-1389 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?resize=300%2C179\" alt=\"IMG_6077s\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?resize=300%2C179 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?resize=1024%2C610 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?resize=624%2C372 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6077s.jpg?w=1200 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1389\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mt. Jefferson, over Timberline Lodge<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The next notable terrain feature I come to is a V-shaped ravine carved by a small creek. There\u2019s no bridge here. In RMNP I\u2019d expect a couple of logs, at least. But the soil is very sandy and looks like it erodes quite easily. I suppose any sort of minor bridge here would just have its ends undermined in a short time, rendering such a bridge impractical. Not a big deal, it was very easy to cross.<\/p>\n<p>Zigzag Canyon overlook was next. That previous ravine was a miniature version of Zigzag Canyon. (Looking at the USGS topo map, I think it was Little Zigzag Canyon) Here the trail drops about 400\u2019 to the river, then gains most of that back. The summit of Mt. Hood is nicely visible here. The hike down to the river is very lush. The stream itself (Zigzag River?) is much larger than previous stream but nearly as easy to cross. Again, there\u2019s no bridge.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1390\" style=\"width: 594px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6080_stitch_crop_resize\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1390\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1390\" data-attachment-id=\"1390\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_6080_stitch_crop_resize\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?fit=2006%2C800\" data-orig-size=\"2006,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1409570561&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?fit=584%2C233\" class=\"wp-image-1390 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?resize=584%2C233\" alt=\"IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize\" width=\"584\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?resize=1024%2C408 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?resize=300%2C119 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?resize=624%2C248 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?w=2006 2006w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?w=1168 1168w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_6080_stitch_crop_resize.jpg?w=1752 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1390\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zigzag Canyon<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The trail climbs consistently from here to the Paradise Park trail junction, then climbs some more.

So there was no convenient place to set the GoPro. The SLR wasn\u2019t a problem because the tripod was taller than the flora, but the GoPro only sits a few inches off the ground. So I just set the cameras up in the shorter grass along the trail.

Although the sky was clear when I set out from Timberline Lodge, some nice clouds were sweeping past the summit. At times it seemed like the clouds were coming out of the mountain itself, which is fitting for a volcano. For most of my hikes in RMNP, I\u2019m at secluded lakes and nobody is around. While I was shooting, a couple of hikers came by. The SLR clicking off every two seconds turns out to be quite the conversation starter.<\/p>\n<p>I got back to the main trail and decided to do the loop rather than return the way I arrived. I met a couple of girls from Laramie and we each took the others\u2019 pictures for them. They were doing the loop, too. I paused to refill water from a nice stream and they left my sight. I tried to follow the trail but kept getting into camp sites, except once at a dead-end overlooking a waterfall. I retraced my steps a couple of times (generally straight up the slope) and ended up going back the way I came.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1393\" style=\"width: 241px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_7443s\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1393\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1393\" data-attachment-id=\"1393\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_7443s\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?fit=800%2C1036\" data-orig-size=\"800,1036\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;11&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 20D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1409579466&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;85&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_7443s\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?fit=584%2C757\" class=\"wp-image-1393 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?resize=231%2C300\" alt=\"IMG_7443s\" width=\"231\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?resize=231%2C300 231w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?resize=790%2C1024 790w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?resize=624%2C808 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7443s.jpg?w=800 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1393\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wildflower and bee<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After a while I came to two women who were standing next to a trail marker, consulting a map. I told them what I wanted to do and one pointed to a narrow trail heading straight down slope. &#8220;That&#8217;s the Paradise Park Loop trail&#8221;. So I headed that way. After a while it intersected the Pacific Crest Trail and turned left. At another overlook I met a couple who were trying to get to Ramona Falls. They said they went a little farther along the route I was taking but turned around because it got steep. I wonder where they came from then?<\/p>\n<p>I continued and after a fair amount of descent came to the trail junction I&#8217;d been at earlier. I was happy to now be on familiar ground. Just a bit more descent to the Zigzag River, then the climb out of the canyon. It took me quite a while longer to ascend than to descend earlier in the day. I kept thinking the ordeal would be over as from the overlook back to the lodge was mostly slight up and down, or at least that&#8217;s how I remembered it. Perhaps part of the reason I was moving so efficiently in the morning was that the trail was slightly downhill. To my chagrin in the afternoon, I realized it&#8217;s pretty much uphill all the way from the Zigzag overlook to the lodge. I was really feeling it by the end. But once I saw the communications tower, my spirits and my pace picked up.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1394\" style=\"width: 167px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_7451s\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1394\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1394\" data-attachment-id=\"1394\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/2014\/09\/portland-trip-day-10-mt-hood\/img_7451s\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?fit=628%2C1200\" data-orig-size=\"628,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;10&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Canon EOS 20D&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1409584698&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;70&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.00625&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_7451s\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?fit=535%2C1024\" class=\"wp-image-1394 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?resize=157%2C300\" alt=\"IMG_7451s\" width=\"157\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?resize=157%2C300 157w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?resize=535%2C1024 535w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?resize=624%2C1192 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/grunschev.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/IMG_7451s.jpg?w=628 628w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 157px) 100vw, 157px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1394\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Crossing the Zigzag<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I didn\u2019t see any wildlife bigger than a squirrel and no interesting birds (e.g. raptors). Not many birds at all. Just lots of bees. The weather was beautiful all day. No clouds visible when I hit the trail, one bank lying behind the mountain from my vantage, just higher than the shoulder of the mountain. By the time I got the cameras running, thin clouds were shrouding the peak. Moving fairly quickly, never really obscuring it until I was done.<\/p>\n<p>One thing that I think made the hike harder than I&#8217;m used to is the humidity. I perspired quite a bit, but it didn&#8217;t evaporate, so no cooling effect. Elevation was certainly no problem, trailhead starts at about 5800&#8242;. Paradise Park is about the same. From the topo map it looks like there\u2019s a total of 1,000\u2019 of elevation change.<\/p>\n<p>After the hike, I had to drive to Tigard for three days in the office. I don\u2019t have much to say about the drive. Most of it was US 26, a repeat (in the opposite direction) of a few days before. This being the Monday of a holiday weekend, however, traffic was bad. The first few miles were at a crawl. Luckily that didn\u2019t last long and I was in Tigard for dinner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 1, 2014 My normal routine for hiking is to hit the road early and take a bagel with me for breakfast at the trailhead.
