Update from the PCTA:
On August 2nd, 2011, loggers sent rocks tumbling onto the PCT. Columbia River Gorge NSA rangers report: “Beautiful day up near 3 Corner Rock! Great views. Location is about 1.25 miles almost due east of 3 Corner Rock and is situated just on the north side of the ridge between the Hamilton Creek and Rock Creek basins. The re-route is well-signed and is on a well-defined road…about a one minute walk. Still waiting on word from logger about timing of opening but the rocks are beyond the scope of a work party. ” Hike on!
