Trip Report: Intro to Backpacking on Rho Ridge

Rho Ridge Backpacking with Next Adventure Outdoor School

Last weekend saw the inaugural trip for Next Adventure Outdoor School Backpacking tours - 3 days along Rho Ridge in the Mt. Hood National Forest.
The weather was perfect, providing fantastic views of the Cascade Mountains.  Mt. Jefferson was right there in-your-face from Hawk Mountain.  The view stretched from Mt. Rainier far to the North, included Mt. Hood, Olallie Butte, the aforementioned Jeff, and south to Three Fingered Jack, Mt. Washington, and the Three Sisters in the Central Cascades.
