Weekend backpacking in the Three Sisters Wilderness

Linton Springs

With Hwy 242 closed for construction we took advantage of a suddenly larger Three Sisters Wilderness to find solitude at Linton Meadows - now a ten mike hike from the nearest trailhead. It worked, we saw no one for three days. The meadows were a riot of wildflowers. They are also apparently less heavily used and recovering nicely from the damage caused by the throngs who used to visit here back in the day. Great trip.
