Timberline Trail- Eliot Branch Reconstruction

Mt. Hood National Forest Hood River, Oregon Hood River Ranger District

A debris flow in 2006 washed out this portion of the Timberline Trail creating a barrier to circumnavigate Mt. Hood. The proposal would reconstruct approximately 1.5 miles of the Timberline Trail across Eliot Branch.

Location

The reconstruction would occur approximately 1 mile north of the former Timberline Trail crossing of Eliot Branch
