Revisiting the epic Wilson River Trail in the Coast Range

Programming note: This is a rebroadcast of an excellent episode from October, 2021. Go hike this epic trail! The Wilson River Trail runs almost 24 miles through the Coast Range, offering hikers a variety of options for excellent fall excursions. Situated on the north side of Oregon 6, the highway between Hillsboro and Tillamook, the trail snakes through a lush, quiet forest featuring deciduous trees that change color in the fall. This week on the Peak Northwest podcast, we discuss the many ways to explore the trail. Some highlights: Jamie details his recent trips to the Wilson River Trail, where he encountered few other hikers. He and Jim discuss how to best day-hike the trail. Jamie notes that the Tillamook Forest Center is closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We kick around the trail’s backpacking, trail running and long-distance hiking options. Jamie touches on the trail’s mountain biking and horseback riding options. He dives into plans to extend the trail. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
