Trail Overview

This is an easy dirt/gravel trail that can be narrow at times, which means depending on the width of your rig, you might pick up some extra trail badges. Lookout Mountain Road offers some magnificent vistas that include Mount Hood. If you're making a longer haul through this mountain range, there is plenty of dispersed camping in this area. It is also close enough to Hemlock to get some pricey fuel and groceries.

Fairly easy trail. Nothing crazy just some ruts on a small portion but easy to navigate around. Beautiful views throughout and at the top
