Join the Washington Native Plant Society for this hike that uses the Mount Hood Meadows chair lift to quickly gain the high mountain meadows for stunning displays of a wide variety of alpine flowers.   

From the chairlift, hike west and loop back down to the parking lot.  When the wildflowers have dried out everyplace else this is the place to go for stunning views of the high mountain meadows.  Some of the most accessible and spectacular displays are on the Mount Hood Meadows ski slopes where a widely diverse panorama of alpine flowers bloom in this late season.  Last year lift ticket prices were $22 on the day of the hike or $20 if purchased on line; seniors 75+ ride free. 

This is a joint hike with the Suksdorfia Chapter (WNPS) and the Portland Chapter (NPSO). The hike is limited to 12 people.
