MT. HOOD FROM THE TOP OF LARCH MOUNTAIN
11,225 Feet in Elevation
Larch Mountain is reached by a foot and pony trail, starting from either Multnomah or Wahkeena Falls. One branch of the trail starts from the Highway at Multnomah Falls, and after crossing the bridge spanning the Lower Falls, winds back and forth, climbing on the side of the mountain until it passes over the rim rock and enters a box canyon above Multnomah Falls. Passing out of this canyon it unites with the trail coming up from Wahkeena Falls and continues through a magnificent forest to the top of Larch Mountain, four thousand feet above, where five great mountain peaks can be seen at once, always white with snow.
