This route ascends and descends two popular, rugged mountains in the Oregon Coast range, Kings Mt and Elk Mt, and connects them via the Wilson River Trail. These mountains sit at lower elevations than some of the mountains in the Columbia River Gorge and Mt Hood, meaning that this trail can be used nearly year round. 

The Tanzawa Mountains are ever present on the Tokyo horizon, tracing a dark saw-tooth line across the foreground as one looks out towards Mount Fuji.

The Tanzawa Main Range (丹沢主脈) traverses the tallest peaks in the range on a mostly North/South axis, including Yakiyama, Hirugatake, Tanzawa, and Tonodake. It offers fairly runnable trails along a rolling ridgeline, with spectacular views of downtown Tokyo, Mount Fuji, and the Pacific Ocean. On a clear day, you can easily make out Tokyo Skytree and Oshima Island.
