Hiking
This renowned trail offers breathtaking vistas of Crooked River National Grassland and the grand Cascades, accessible from Gray Butte Trailhead or Cole Loop Trail. A haven for hikers, riders, and bikers, but exercise caution on steep, rocky terrain and avoid it after heavy rain, when the clay and sand become treacherous "gumbo."
