Columbia County High Point Trip Report
Oregon Butte (6,387 ft)

After leaving the Teepee Trailhead, you have several different route choices heading to the summit of Oregon Butte that
don't appear on the USGS map. First, there is a trail that contours north of West Butte (so you don't have to go over the
summit if you don't want to). Secondly, there is a steep footpath running between the Oregon Butte Spring and the summit
of Oregon Butte.
By using both options, we were able to do a scenic hike with very little overlap on the up/down routes.
Round trip total (using all options) is 6 miles, with 1,400 feet elevation gain.
