About this place

This trailhead provides access to Huckleberry Mountain Trail (#1667 to #1665 to #1689) within the Eagle Cap Wilderness. This is a wonderful place to go for those seeking solitude. The trail is forested and somewhat rough peaking out on top of a high ridge. The ridgetop is mostly open grassland, filled with wildflowers in July. Excellent views of the Lostine Canyon and Bear Creek greet the hiker after the arduous climb. The trail follows the ridge top for several miles and then drops down to Little Storm Lake. From Wallowa, OR, head south on State Highway 82. Turn off State Highway 82 at the west end of Wallowa and follow signs toward Boundary Campground on Forest Road 8250. Stay left at the Boundary Campground junction and continue on the Little Bear Creek Road 8250. Travel approximately 7 miles, turn onto Forest Road 160 to the trailhead. The road is not maintained for passenger vehicles or RVs.
