After yesterday’s good hard rain, all the weather peeps said that Tuesday, Sept 30 would be clear until 2pm when the rains come again. A perfect time to hike Ridgeline<\/a> between storms – an often occurrence in fall and winter. My objective was to get a good set of miles and elevation gain, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sunrise was timed to 7:11 which made it hard catch the sunrise from an open meadow without starting too early or late. Leaving home at 6:00, stars were in the sky and the eastern sky lightening up, and with a 10 minute drive door to TH, I was hiking by 6:15 with headlamp on. I returned to the car before 1:30, just as the rain started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Spring TH to Spencer Top; down to S. Willamette TH and back to Spencer Top; down to Blanton TH and back to Spencer top; down \/ back to Spring Blvd TH.<\/p>\n\n\n
