Climb Mt. Fuji

Details

Let’s climb Mt Fuji! Well, it’s really called Fuji Mountain and it’s right here in the Oregon Cascades. We will visit the former lookout site on top of this 7144 ft cliff-edged volcanic peak for a beautiful view of Oregon’s Waldo Lake, virgin forests and mountains. Depending on the weather, we could see all the way north to Mt St Helens and south to Mt Shasta in California. Best of all, our route of 3 miles round trip has only about 900 ft elevation gain. There is no better way to get high in the Cascades than this easy hike. I hope folks from the Sierra Club Juniper Group in Bend will join us on this outing.
