The Wallowas
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure as you tackle the trails of Chief Joseph Mountain, a true gem that watches over Wallowa Lake. The hike is a rewarding challenge, leading you through vibrant meadows and cool forests before opening up to some of the most spectacular views in the Wallowas. You'll want to start early and pack plenty of water for this full-day trek. The trailhead is just a short drive past the lake, and from there, it's all you and the mountain. The feeling of accomplishment as you reach the upper meadows, with the valley sprawling beneath you, is something you won't soon forget.
