Trail Overview
Whiskey Dick Ridge Road is a 4-mile point-to-point trail connecting Pump House Road to Whiskey Dick Creek Road (identified as Homestead Trail on OnX). True to its name, the trail follows a ridgeline reaching an elevation of 2,800 feet, offering panoramic views of the wind farm to the west and the Columbia Gorge to the east. A Washington State Discover Pass is required for area access. The trail is subject to a seasonal closure from February 1st through April 30th. Due to sharp rocks along the route, a tire patch kit or spare tire is strongly recommended. Note: Photographs are oriented from east to west.
Difficulty
This trail features several sections with deep ruts and a brief hill climb that includes rock steps leading to the summit. Stock vehicles may encounter challenges navigating these obstacles, making good line choice essential. Adverse weather conditions, such as rain or snow, can significantly increase the difficulty and may render the trail impassable.
