Hood to the south and the summit of Mt. Adams to the north, a sight you will never forget.Then we are off to Sahalie Falls and a photo stop featuring a restored bridge from the 1920s on the original highway to Mt. Hood.

The surroundings at Timberline feature views of the peak of Mt. Hood and the vastness of the Cascade Mountains, including Mt. Jefferson and other Oregon peaks in the distance.Our return trip opens up views not seen on our ascent and features a stop at one of the popular fruit stands featuring products from the Hood River Valley.
