Ridgeline 360 Panorama of Lost Lake! | 4K Winter Snowshoe Hiking Potato Hill Sno-Park Central Oregon

This was a Day-Hike in Central Oregon, Willamette National Forest near Mount Washington, starting at Potato Hill Sno-Park, parking in what I have dubbed "Tater Tot Lot", and hiking Hash Brown Loop and Jack Pine Road to Potato Hill Summit with absolutely EPIC VIEWS of Mount Washington! Due to very heavy pack snow accumulation it was necessary to deploy snowshoes and trekking poles. The temperature was 22F with wind chill of 16F. The sky was mostly dark grey ominous hauntingly beautiful clouds but the sun battled back and came out a few times.

This was hiked on 1/11/2022, and there were of course NO Mosquitoes. As far as road conditions, it's highway to the Potato Hill Sno-Park parking lot which is literally directly off the highway and in great condition and well paved. In my opinion, the road most definitely DOES NOT require 4-Wheel Drive, however do watch for road conditions as far as snow/ice and plan accordingly since it is a heavy snow/ice area, and do so at your own risk!
