Timberline Trail. Paradise park
This trail starts from the timberline lodge. It was a cooler than normal day, but comfortable with a light layer. This trail kind of skirts mount hood following the PCT. I hiked this trail with Braton. We did this hike as a loop/lollipop. Making it 13.5miles instead of 12.1 to paradise park as an out and back. It was gorgeous. The trail we took back had tons of wild flowers and views of mount hood. I didn’t use moy poles for any part of this hike. The elevation was pretty flat but had a slight inclines and declines throughout. I was pretty tired by the end. Or after like 11 miles
