Rugged ridgeline trails with open panoramas of rolling sage, wildflower meadows (spring) and distant Cascade peaks — ideal for expansive landscape and sunrise/sunset shots. Trailhead at a roadside parking area; short to moderate hikes put photographers on exposed ridgelines with dramatic light. Best in spring for flowers and late summer/fall for warm sunsets. Expect wind and quick temperature changes; bring water, sun protection and sturdy footwear. Weekday mornings have fewer hikers; no permits
