Circumnavigate Three-Fingered Jack in the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness, one of the most unique summits of the Oregon Cascades. As we navigate past basalt formations and glacial pools, we’ll discover firsthand how fire and ice have shaped the High Cascades landscape. On our last day we’ll follow the snowmelt to the McKenzie River for a day of rafting with guides from High Country Expeditions. This trip is designed to expand on previous hiking experience, so come prepared to be in the elements!
