At times we wonder in God's creation and simply ask, "what happened here?" This epic expedition of Oregon's southernmost volcano is sure to make you awe in disbelief. This hike was done in late may of 2023 on the Mt Mcloughlin Trail. However, there's still plenty of information to help year-round climbers. I used the song "Ain't it Fresh" by Alcyon Massive. Below is the link to the AllTrails map to help navigate. Please be advised: you will need some sort of mapping application to attempt this trail in the winter or early spring.

Please like the video so more people will see it! Thank you!
Love your videos! Man, I did McLoughlin two days ago and wow! That was tough! Way tougher than Lassen or anything I've hiked. Can't wait to go again!
Thank you! And Ikr, it seemed like it would be easier but it was roughhhhh. Where you headed next?
We spent the last weekend in April in Medford. We drove east on 140 and stopped at Lake of the Woods. I was in shorts and short sleeve shirt walking in snow. The lake was still frozen. We looked up and Mt. McLoughlin still had tons of snow. Beautiful country we plan to visit again next year. Thanks for the video.
Good for you gettin out there even with not such ideal clothes! It is very beautiful indeed, thank you for watching!
Years ago, I climbed McLoughlin in the summer and there were a couple of retirees with a tiny lap dog at the summit. It was a total walk-up hike. But, of course, snow always increases the difficulty.
In the mid 80's we were on our way to Mt. Thielsen when my friend saw Mcloughlin from the west where it is so symmetrical and he said what mountain is that?/ We're doing it! And so we did. Then on to Thielsen. Hey, thanks for posting, no cheap cams back then. 👍
Lmao my friends said the same thing- its def such an underrated volcano! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, I plan on climbing McLoughlin this weekend. The drone shots are incredible, what kind of drone do you have?
I've got a DJI mini 2, it's fairly cheap and easy to learn. I highly recommend it. You're going to have a great time this weekend, trail should be easier to find and great weather. Have an amazing time!
Lol fire song choice
Was the road to the trailhead completely clear of snow? Or did y’all start from a different location?
Road to the trailhead was clear, you should get there no problem!
Thinking about goin up here this weekend to freye lake. Do you recall any snow on that section before the turn off? Or any by the lake
Yes, you will definitely hit some snow. However, the snow isnt thick and you wont fall in much. By now your trail will def be more patchy than when I went.
Drones in the wilderness is a no go. Dont let the rangers see this
Unless you have a license and permit to do so..
Drones are not allowed in wilderness areas. Keep them wild.
What is the flag hanging like underwear?
Haha just a bandana broski
@@nmvids that's cool bud.
I hate the intro. I thought I had accidentally hit an ad or something. What does all that have to do with climbing Mt McLoughlin or outdoor pursuits in the 21st century? I almost clicked away.
8:23 definitely could do without the lame music and the urination.
