Upper Rogue River Trail Hike

Join us for an 8-mile hike along the Upper Rogue Trail, which is a National Recreation Trail that closely follows the river from its headwaters at the edge of Crater Lake National Park to the boundary of the Rogue River/Siskiyou National Forest. Driving up in elevation towards the Rogue headwaters will offer a some cooler temperatures in the peak of the valley's summer heat. See how the river cut through pumice that was deposited by the explosion of Mount Mazama about 8,000 years ago—which formed Crater Lake—and learn about Rogue Riverkeeper's work to protect and restore water quality and fish populations in this extraordinary watershed. 

Carpools leave from Evo's Coffee in Ashland at 9am. For a meeting location in Medford or Shady Cove, call Lesley at (541) 488-5789.
