Absolutely A Must See! When: Thu Oct 01, 2015 8:30AM-5PM Where: Beacon Rock and Rodney Falls Meet at: Gresham City Hall 1333 NW Eastman Pwy Gresham, OR Get Map!

Beacon Rock State Park is the site of two popular trails just off Highway 14 on the Washington side of the Columbia River. The first is an approximately two-mile round-trip stair-climb to the top of Beacon Rock. This familiar landmark in the Gorge is an 848-foot-high block of basalt that has great views of the Columbia river along the many switchbacks of the trail all the way to the top. The second is just across the highway on the Hamilton Mountain trail and is approximately 2.5-mile round-trip to Rodney Falls, which is a hike through a second-growth Douglas fir forest to a couple of picturesque falls. Bring a snack, water and lunch to eat along the trail. While comfortable walking shoes are appropriate for Beacon Rock, hiking boots are recommended for the Rodney Falls trail.

• Round-trip travel: 80 miles
• Difficulty: Moderate/difficult
• Elevation gain: Beacon Rock - 300 feet; Rodney Falls - 600 feet
• Suggested donation per hiker: $8

The parking for this hike requires a $10 Washington Discover Pass. The Bridge of the Gods toll is $2 each way, so in addition to the $8 rider donation, these extra expenses will be shared among the number of riders per car.
