The Perfect 10 Lake of the Woods Mountain Lodge, Oregon By Misty Blakesley
But there are dry-land alternatives: miles of easy and moderate trails, many lined with purple asters, for hiking and mountain biking under the gaze of the perfectly symmetrical 9,495-foot Mount McLoughlin. My favorite is the 9.3-mile High Lakes Trail to the lunar landscape of the Brown Mountain lava flow. And the sedate seven-mile trail that runs around the lake is good for taking in the dramatic views of the surrounding Rogue River National Forest.
On our last day we stuffed a basket with snacks, hiked deep into the dense forest, and stayed there so long we practically grew antlers.
