Description |
This hike will include the official trail to Eagle Ridge and an unmarked route descending the ridge and continuing on to the higher ridge to the north. From there we will descend to the logging road and return to the vehicles. The descent from Eagle Ridge is very steep on mossy rocks. There is no trail. With the culvert out on Copperhead logging road, we will have to park at the creek and walk up. |
Meeting Place |
Heriot Bay store parking lot for car pooling. |

The section up to Eagle Ridge is a maintained trail of moderate difficulty. The descent from Eagle Ridge is challenging. The segment to the next ridge and down to the logging road is on an unmarked route through mostly open forest. |
