McCulloch Peak from Oak Creek. Saturday March 12th, we expect to see some signs of spring as we climb to the highest point in McDonald Forest. We'll pass big leaf maples beginning to show green, rushing streams, mosses, and ferns. If weather cooperates, we'll have views of the Willamette Valley and foothills, perhaps even the Cascade Peaks still draped in snow. Moderate/difficult, 7-9 miles, with 1,700-2,000 feet of elevation gain, depending on exact route chosen. Meet at the Wilkinson Hall parking lot (Arnold & 27th) for a 9:00 a.m. departure. Contact leader: Ralph Nafziger, 541-926-4245.
