Hawley Mountain is the second peak along the FS374 ridgeline north of the Harris Creek Summit. Harris Creek Summit (saddle) can be reached from Harris Creek Rd. which connects Horseshoe Bend and Placerville, Idaho. It is a dirt road in good condition.
The easy access to this hill is off of forest road FS-6081 (you’d want a high clearance vehicle) which was not passable for us. It leads to a spur road that goes almost to the top (this is also blocked to vehicles by windfall and some erosion). Good thing we had a plan B – which was to follow the PCT - Trail #2000, south from the nearby Crest Horse Camp.
Badger Mountain, W7O/CC-057, is a one point summit that is a repeater/cell tower complex at the end of a 2.2 mile logging road. It isn't particlarly atteractive, unless you like to look at towers. Access can be a bit tricky. See below.
Stoney Point, W7O/CC-076, is a one point summit near Noti, OR. It is on private property and requires permission to hike. The people who live in the house at the gate have been reasonable about access, as were the loggers working on the way up.
A bit south of Cannon Beach there is this easy walk up a logging road. The sign at the gate indicates that hiking access is permitted. Starting in 2018 the landowner is requiring permits for access - see https://nncpermits.com/Permits/PermitDetails.aspx.
You'll find the logging road and gate near 45.863, -123.95950 about 0.6 miles south of Tolvana Park. Don't block the gate of course, and proceed up the logging road.
Park at the Marple Mountain Sno Park overflow area which is on the south side of SR83. Plenty of parking room in the non-snow months.
Follow FR8312 to the summit which is about 4 mi one way. Easy hike up an old logging road. The summit is a site of an old firetower but is now used as a USGS Mt St Helens monitoring site. Enough room at the summit for an EFHW. Good vistas of Mt Adams but St Helens is obscured by the forrested summit.
Park at the open gate where FR54 and FR5407 cross which is just west of the Trapper Creek Wilderness area. The TH is just across from the parking area where the Wilderness Permit box is located.
A great trip to the summit of Beckler Peak, Washington. See full details on my blog: http://kf7pxt.blogspot.com/2016/05/beckler-peak-w7wkg-086-sota.html
I've had my eye on Elizabeth Ridge since first noticing it two years ago during an activation of nearby Tolmie Peak (W7W/RS-035). This 5,500' summit rises sharply just across the road from the trail head one takes to Tolmie Peak. Starting at the road in front of Mowich Lake, the summit is only 500' vertically, but this is over a distance of 0.3 to 0.4 miles. This could be a short (but not necessarily quick and easy) hike during the summer after doing Tolmie Peak. A winter or spring activation adds 4.5 miles (each way) and 1200' of elevation because the road is closed and snow covered.
Timber Butte is a 2 point, 3650' asl summit about 19 miles north of Lowell, OR. It is crowned by a converted lookout tower. This converted structure is available as a rental cabin, which is available for rent on a daily basis from mid May through mid September.A gate blocks the road up to the cabin/summit. The walk up is about a mile and rises about 350'. The renters will usually lock the gate while they are at the cabin. You may be able to negotiate with them to activate at the cabin or down the hill a bit in the activation zone. Then again, maybe not.
