The Road to Paulina Peak in Newberry Crater is Open for Hikers Spring 2024
The Paulina Peak Road Has Snow But it is Melting Fast
Reports about the trail to the top of Paulina Peak in Newberry Crater National Monument on June 1, 2024 stated that the last mile had a lot of snow. Rather than navigate through this and the abrupt steep drop off the last mile of the trail, hikers could elect to walk the road up to the peak. This road was not yet open for vehicles and had snow patches in the shady areas, but was very much passable by hikers. The last 1/2 mile to the peak on the road had three feet of compacted snow, but with the use of trekking poles, it was easily traversed. The views of the snow capped Cascades and Paulina Lake were splendid from the top as were eastern views toward Fort Rock and the Obsidian Flow. Hiking the road results in 1600 feet of elevation gain to the peak which is just under 8000 feet above sea level, but over a more gradual grade than the trail, making for a longer hike but more easily done. All in all, the total hike by the road is just under 8 miles up and back from the gate off the main road through the monument.
