Date: July 28, 2021.
Objective: Saddle Mountain 3,283ft.
Stats: 6 miles with 1,900ft gain in 4hrs round trip. Strava.
On vacation at the Oregon Coast and found this cool peak to hike. The trailhead is accessed by taking a paved but steep road. No fee's (or ferry's) required. It's a nice hike but kind of steep in places and the footing can be tricky in spots where the trail has been anchored with a chain-link-fence type material that has come loose. Unfortunately it was too smoky to see any big volcanoes, but we could see the Astoria area and the Pacific no problem.
