On Mary's Peak by Hiking Guy...

Mary's Peak is the highest summit in the Oregon Coast Range, at 4098 feet. On a clear, haze-free day, one may see the Olympics in the North along with the Cascades as far as the Canadian border. Straight East is the central High Cascades. To the South are the High Cascades clear down to California and the Klamath Range of SW Oregon. West is the Pacific. The trail to the summit is an old road, and an easy walk. We have seen powered wheelchairs up there; I suspect it's a bumpy ride. Wildflowers abound, on the rock walls and in the meadows. Huge Alpine meadows, adorned with colorful butterflies. Many trails meandering about the summit area. Great place for kids. Wear a sun hat or slather on the sunscreen. Lots of places to eat lunch. Not the place for wilderness solitude.
