Greateful to be able to spend a day on Mt Hood. I started at Zigzag Ranger Station and went clockwise. Zigzag mtn area is overgrown, I'd wear knee high socks next time. Water along West Zigzag trail. Timberline Trail was very populated with hikers. Water below tree-line on PCT then none until the salmon river. Plenty after that until green canyon to end which is dry. Jackpot meadows bridge across the salmon river is out from storm damage. Thank you trail volunteers and trail crew for working on the blow down from this winter. PCT, Salmon River, and Green Canyon all had work done. Green Canyon has a section where the trail is gone because root wads of large diameter trees, trail has plentiful blowdown. Hunchback is even more of a challenge now from the jct of Green Canyon to 1/2 mile west because this year's winter storm added to the blowdown. Don't take it lightly and plan for this section in daylight. I am very familiar with all these trails and chose to do Hunchback at the end. I recommend a Green Canyon/Hunchback scout to make your own assessment.
