Agreed with many comments-great TR. Your observations and presentation are inspiring to encourage others to pay more attention of all the cool, small things on a trip.

This guy I used to go to school with in central Oregon said he was deer hunting on Hager Mtn in the 1980s and saw two sets of fresh foot tracks in the snow behind them but saw no one. He implied the tracks were from a ghost of a boy who died up there years ago. Hager Mtn is haunted!

A great TR, thanks. It is truly a great winter experience. A friend and I have been celebrating winter solstice from this lookout for the last 4 years. Lots of great stories. Pretty challenging most years although the year before last was a 3 hour hike to the top. All others were 5-6hour snowshoe trips.
I once left the privy door open before ascending to the lookout. The next morning's constitution began with a20 minute shoveling of drifted snow. Some things you just dont learn from a book:-)

"Cool" being the operative word! Here is a pic of me & the hound emerging after one of the storms.

"Hager Mtn is haunted!" I sure enjoyed haunting it for awhile
Agreed Chief Paulina, great winter hideaway! But say, do share more stories and some pictures

An exceptional, and enviable, story - illustrated with so many superlative photos - but this is the one that made me sigh...
Thank you David, for another wonderful trip report!
