Know Before You Go:

  • A very dry and dusty trail, be sure to bring lots of water.

  • It can be very windy along the top of the ridge so bring layers.

  • This is a great place to see wildflowers in the summer and find wild strawberries!

  • Visiting the observatory costs an additional $8 per person if you don't have an America the Beautiful pass.

  • This hike is great to do early in the summer season when Mount Saint Helens still has some snow cover.
