Update, June 29, 2020: Friends of the Columbia Gorge suspends all guided outings through summer.
Friends is committed to operating our guided hikes in a way that puts safety first. That means making sure we have the safety protocols developed to keep hiker leaders, shepherds, hike attendees, and others on the trails all as safe as possible. And in light of the ongoing safety challenges posed by the coronavirus crisis we've decided that canceling our summer hikes is the responsible thing to do. Read more about our decision; if you have additional questions on these cancellations please contact Friends Communication Director Burt Edwards at burt@gorgefriends.org.
