Review & FAQ:

Carpenter Mountain is one of the 73 mountains on the list of Oregon Prominence Peaks due to its height of 2,029 feet of prominence. Like Odell Butte, it also features an active lookout. To get to the trail that leads to the summit visitors should park near the Carpenter Peak Trail. From there they will hike up a beautiful 1-mile trail with a 1,000-foot rise in elevation. The last 600 feet of the trail turns slightly difficult as it becomes very steep and rocky. The trail ends on a volcanic pinnacle where the Carpenter Mountain Lookout resides, offering stunning views of Cascade Crest, Wolf Rock, Three Fingered Jack, Three Sisters, Mount Jefferson, and Mount Washington.
