Cannon Beach Ridge Mountains climb

Brianne and I climbed up to the highest point on the mountain ridge South East of Cannon Beach today.  We have had our eye on this point for some time and today's colder but sunny November day was the perfect time to get a crisp clear view from up there.

Here are a few pictures and a video of our mini adventure.

A few of Brianne and I at the summit ridge.







An interesting angle to see the rock from.



Some views of the Ocean showing from Arch Cape all the way north to Seaside and a bit beyond.







The three large volcanoes in the distance.
Mt Ranier at the left, Mt StHelen's in the middle and Mt Adams at the right.

Mt St Helens and Mt Adams.


Sugarloaf Mt with Saddle Mt in the background.


This the summit ridge from the side, we were almost there at this point.  It was hard to find because there's not really any defined path up to it.




Looking back up at the summit (2,700ft), we were still at about 1,000ft up at this point.

The red arrow points to where we were.
