Review:<\/strong> April 22, 2025
Thanks to the North Coast Land Conservancy you can hike here. Walk up the logging road through the forest. After just a 0.1 mile or so, turn right at the junction of the logging road and continue uphill through a clear cut that has been replanted.

At 0.4 mile is another little road junction where you stay to the right. The views open up through the clearcut and you can see Angora peak off to your right. As you continue up the logging road just stay on the main road past the next several junctions.

After about 1.25 miles turn right and pass by the rainforest reserve gate, continuing uphill. It is a somewhat steep walk up through these first couple of miles. After about climbing for 2.5 miles, you may see an old abandoned stone house that is falling down.

From the stonehouse thread your way through the trees. Drop back down to the visible tread and continue along. In about another quarter to a half mile you\u2019ll have a nice view of Sasquatch rock and the ocean. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alders are growing along and into the trail in several stretches. There are some great wildflowers along sections of the trail.

We turned right at the junction and followed traces of the old logging road up to Angora pinnacle. It is really steep at the end so we did not climb all the way up. Retrace your steps back to the junction and a little saddle and turn right.

On a clear day, enjoy all the ocean views as you descend back down the gravel roads to the parking area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy the photos!!
