Union Peak Trailhead.
Steam rises from the forest floor after a cold night.
The Pacific Crest Trail provides a pleasant and quiet access trail to Union Peak.
You'll find snow here much of the year. Visit in August for the best chance at a snow-free trail.
The first real view of Union Peak is quite a sight!
All the fun begins at the base of the summit trail.
From the switchbacks near the summit, the peaks surrounding Crater Lake are clearly visible.
Beautiful rock formations adorn the side of Union Peak.
Weather-sculpted trees take root on the upper mountain.
From the top, enjoy panoramic views of Southern Oregon.
The last few switchbacks will get your attention.
Parts of the trail are steep, hugging the rocky walls of the mountain.
But most of the trail is made of gentle switchbacks that zigzag up the mountainside.
