Description

Devil's Peak is graced by one of the few forest lookouts not destroyed by the Forest Service in the 1960s and 70s, as the agency shifted to aerial surveillance. Today, the humble, historic lookout is maintained by volunteers and open to the public. The easy, short Devil's Peak Hike provides views of Mount Hood along the way, glimpses of the imposing Devil's Tooth monolith and wildflowers in June and July.
