Larch Mountain











Today was another fantastic day of my trip. After breakfast I headed out to visit Larch Mountain. This mountain is important because it is the water source for all of the Waterfalls located in the Columbia River Gorge.
It was an excellent experience to say the least. The drive was excellent. You drive for 15 miles on Larch Mountain Road to get to the top of the mountain. Larch Mountain Road is located off of historic road 30 prior to getting to "Crown Point".
Being at the top of any mountain is an idea place to get away from it all. Larch Mountain is no exception. The mountain offers excellent views of the Cascade Range, and also excellent views of the Magnificent Mount Hood.
After enjoying the incredible view. I cooked lunch using my alcohol burning hiking stove. Lunch consisted of a Thai noodle meal, desert consisted of a cheddar cheese cracker, and a instance cappuccino as my beverage. Enjoy the photos.
