Mazamas — For the Love of Mountains
Lollipop hike that is available year-round on the dry side of the Gorge. This loop takes you up along the western edge of the Labyrinth, over to the magnificent syncline wall, and then up along it into oak/Douglas-fir woods to do a short loop back and drop down the rim once more. Coming down Coyote Wall, taking in expansive vistas every step of the way, is the just reward for slogging all the way up. Dogs must be on a leash, year-round on some trails and for half the year on others. There are ground-nesting birds in this area.

Activity Notes
One of the Classic Spring Wildflower Hikes is Coyote Wall. We will meet at MMC at 8:00AM. The drive to the trailhead is 75 miles and takes about 1 1/2 hours. The hike is 7.8 miles long with an elevation gain of 1775 feet. We should be back to MMC by 4:00PM.
Even though the details page states that dogs are allowed on a leash, and I do lead dog hikes frequently.], I am not leading this hike as a dog hike, so please do not bring your dog on this hike.
