I was reviewing the current list of trails on the Mt Hood NF website - they recently re-did all their trail pages (I honestly think the old pages were more useful than the current format). I was comparing their list to the list we have on this site and found several trails that used to be listed which are no longer there. I'm wondering if they have quietly abandoned the trails or if they just have not gotten them added to the new site yet. Here are the trails I found missing from the current list:
- Anvil Lake
- Burnt Granite
- Cache Meadow
- Corral Springs - The FS cut this trail out a few years ago all the way down to the bottom
- Cottonwood Meadows
- Cripple Creek - The FS cut this trail out after the Riverside fire
- Double Peaks (they noted this one as needing to be rebuilt after the Lionshead fire)
- Gibson Lake
- Hawk Mountain - There has been work done on this trail after the Lionshead fire
- Horseshoe Saddle - this one seems odd because it is a tribute trail - the Rhondy trail - named for Howard Rondthaler who used to be a ranger for Mt Hood who advocated for trails
- Huxley Lake
- Mon-Olallie
- Mt Lowe - I guess this one is not surprising since they don't officially recognize the north end of Rho Ridge anymore
- Rho Creek
- Russ Lake
- Top Lake
