When you wake up in the morning just unwilling to drive a long distance, Spencer Butte is just so close … especially worth considering after recent rains softened up that hard gravel path. Alpine Trail and Hardesty Mt were discarded as too far to drive … <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I crossed the Mt Baldy meadows without a headlamp as dawn’s golden light hit … without strong fire influences that golden light was a welcome sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Route<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Started at Spring Blvd TH leaving with headlamp at 6:00 … up over Baldy and down the multi-use trail to Spencer top; down to S. Willamette TH, back to Spencer top; down to N. Willamette TH and back to Spencer top; down to Cascade Raptor Center<\/a>, and the back to car around 12:30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
