This is the hike that never fails, unless you have really bad weather in the Gorge. Soon after you start you get to the first open vistas of the Columbia Gorge and the further you go, the better they get. On this particular instance, we were a bit early for the wild flower display when the side of the mountain is painted bright yellow. That would have been a bonus. We did the normal way up to the summit were we found tons of people. On the way down though, instead or retracing our steps, we did the slightly longer route taking the Augspurger trail back. That gave us a bit of different scenery and fewer hikers. Splendid day
