Hike Rowland Basin (5.2 miles, +1200 feet)
Details
FYI - I've cross-posted this in another group as well.
Let's catch the Spring wildflowers, as well as great views of the Gorge, on this 5.2 mile loop (with an elevation gain of 1200 feet). Not sure how muddy it's going to be so wear shoes that can handle that. Hiking pace 2.5 mph.
Please note the map pin for where we'll meet. I believe there is a portable potty at the beginning of the trail.
Meet at the trailhead to be ready to start by 10 and carpooling is always a great idea if you know others on the list that are coming.
**Afterward we can head to Backwoods Brewing in Carson for lunch for those who want to join in.
Info: Hi, I'm looking to expand and explore a variety of hiking trails around the greater Portland area and looking for others that want to join me! Many of these I've done but I also want to try new ones so those will be an experiment. I use AllTrails to make sure we've got a downloaded map ahead of time. My hiking style is typically around 2.5 mph depending on if I'm stopping to take pictures or soak up a view for a minute. I enjoy being physical and moving outdoors but I'm not necessarily trying to rush through this at breakneck speed. We won't leave anyone behind and will stop periodically to let the back of the group catch up if needed.
I don't view signing up for this hike as a job for you and realize this is fun (and life happens) but if you can't make it please change your RSVP in case there are others that are hoping to join in. If all this sounds fun to you and your style please sign up!
*I'm just a regular person that enjoys doing stuff with others outdoors and volunteering my time to plan/post/host activities in this group. Please realize I'm not responsible or liable for injuries, accidents (bad stuff) that you may experience on any of my events when you decide to participate. Plan for your own needs and take into account any risks you may face when you decide to sign up for something I post.
