Review & FAQ:
Prairie Mountain is ranked #47 of Oregon Prominence Peaks with an astounding 3,426 feet of prominence. The mountain faces nearby Grass Mountain, which is located across a valley where the town of Alsea and the Alsea River reside. Grass Mountain is also on the OPP list. Many peakbaggers suggest hiking up both in one day as they are challenging but manageable. Prairie Mountain features two peaks, eastern Prairie Peak and western Prairie Peak. The eastern peak is considered the highest peak at about 20 feet higher, but many suggest that hikers climb both to ensure they’ve reached the highest point. Both trails are over 4 miles roundtrip.
