I didn't see anyone else at the top, so I imagine one could get away with extra-curricular activities up there.

I didn't know you could still climb Beacon Rock. A girl friend and I did the climb several years ago. She came up with a very inventive activity once we reached the top. The idea of getting caught and the view made it very exciting. It also stands out as a special memory because she came up with an idea that would never have occurred to me.

I do the drive along Highway 14 frequently. It never fails to bring a smile.

Thanks!

Great pictures ! It looks a very good hike. I'll search it out...

I have a few pictures posted here from hiking at Mt St Helens.

Too bad my husband wasn't able to go with me this time.

Cascade Range looks really great.Hans-St.

Widderstien looks like a very interesting place to hike/climb.

We have the Cascade mountain range here. Mount Hood is fairly close to where I went hiking.

Beacon Rock (even though it originated as a volcano) is really not very tall. It was a pretty short hike. Fun, though.

That looks very, very good. Just go in google onto my so often climbed mountain: WIDDERSTEIN. Grüße, Hans-St.
