Circumnavigate Three-Fingered Jack in the Mount Jefferson Wilderness, one of the most unique peaks of the Cascades. As we navigate past basalt formation and glacial pools, we will discover first hand how fire and ice have shaped the High Cascades landscape. You and your team will gradually rise up to the base of Three Fingered Jack, exploring flowering meadows, amphibious creeks, and the tops of ridgelines. This trip is designed to expand on previous hiking experience, so come prepared to be in the elements.
