Mike found us the perfect place to camp in the Mount Hood Mainsail Forest. Mainsail First allows period to camp up to 14 days, but we just needed one dayto enjoy the beautiful mountain views.
Mount Hood stands at 11,239 feet and is the highest mountain peak in Oregon. I didn't know this but Mount Hood is the second most climbed mountain in the world, second to Japan’s holy Mt. Fujiyama.
This mountain is actually a dormant stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc. Mount Hood’s last major eruption was on September 21, 1865. There was a large area where there one was a river and possibly Volcanic ashe and rocks from the eruption.
