Emigrant Lake, Ashland, Talent, Phoenix, and Medford from Soda Mountain

Although this wasn’t the best time of day or best time of the year for a photo like this, the views from Soda Mountain are very good. Dusk or dawn from this location, particularly after fresh snow or once things have greened up in spring, and I imagine it is spectacular. Emigrant Lake is very low in this photo. The next weekend I went out and took this photo.

Pilot Rock from Soda Mountain

Pilot Rock from Soda Mountain

Today’s photo shows a different side of Pilot Rock. The view of Pilot Rock from Ashland or I-5 heading north from California are the more common vantage points. Today’s photo is from the east. We hiked a few miles from the Hobart Peak trail head on Soda Mountain Road to the Soda Mountain lookout last month. There is also a 9-mile trail on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) from near this location to Pilot Rock.
