Sherrard Point

Overview

Sherrard Point is the exposed volcanic conduit on the top of Larch Mountain. Once the site of a tall fire lookout tower (which the volcanic plug was flattened to accommodate), the pinnacle now hosts a fenced observation platform with views of five major volcanic peaks ( Rainier , Adams , St. Helens , Hood and Jefferson ) as well as the Columbia River and scores of lesser summits. It's reachable via a 0.3 mile long paved path (with stairs) or as the climax of a 7.2 mile trek up from the Columbia River at Multnomah Falls .
