Wyeth Trailhead in the Columbia River National Scenic Area.
Walking 100 feet away from the Green Point Ridge Trail provides a nice view of North Lake and Mt. Defiance. Take care to remember how far you have wandered off the trail so you don't overshoot the trail while bushwhacking.
Trail junction sign for the side trail to Rainy Lake. This short side trail goes to a lake with nice views of Green Point Mountain.
The Wyeth trail passes through a rock-strewn clearing and you can see the radio tower on top of Mt. Defiance to the east.
The pink spires of Western Coralroot (Latin name: Corallorhiza maculata) belong to the Orchid family. These plants are saprophytic, which means they don't need light to grow, they need decaying plant matter.
The Columbia River and Douglas Fir trees frame Mt. St. Helens to the north.
Taking the trail Gorton Creek Trail up to Green Point Ridge Trail provides one of the few views of Mt. Hood on this hike on the Wyeth Trail.
Silverback Luina (Latin name: Luina hypoleuca) has silver gray leaves that are kind of oval shaped. The clusters of flowers are white and it likes to grow on rocky areas a ways above the Columbia River.
Second growth trees along the lower section of Wyeth Trail.
Rainy Lake has nice views of Green Point Mountain. The lake is shallow and warms up for swimming.
Queen's Cup (Latin name: Clintonia uniflora) has almost strap-like leaves coming from the ground and 6-petaled white flowers. This is a member of the Lilly family.
North Lake has a grassy shoreline on the far side of the lake. You can expect to see fish jumping to catch bugs.
Looking west along the Wyeth trail.
Looking northeast at the Columbia river far below in the distance. This picture is an illustration of the elvation gain on this trail. The trail begins at about the same elevation as the Columbia River.
Looking east into the Hood River Valley. This is probably the community of Parkdale in the distance.
