We will be hiking a 5.5 mile loop featuring Wahkeena and Multnomah Falls as well as sweeping views of the Columbia River Gorge. The route includes ~1,500 feet of elevation gain and loss, so, while we will be pacing ourselves and taking frequent breaks to rest and admire our surroundings, this hike will be a challenge for newer hikers. Meet at 10:30am for introductions and group guidlines. We will be departing the parking area promptly at 10:45am. Bring plenty of water and snacks or a trail friendly lunch as we expect to be on the trail for 4 to 5 hours. 📍 Where we’ll meet: Meeting point (Google Maps) Coordinates: 45.5752339, -122.1281772 🥾 Trail details: Difficulty: Hard View the trail on AllTrails Permit: No pass is needed 🎒 What to bring: Standard gear (10 essentials), lunch Waiver required to attend: Please sign the waiver before attending: queermountaineers.com/waiver.
