Gnarl Ridge

Overview

Gnarl Ridge forms the northern rim of Newton Creek Canyon, and provides a spectacular view of the east face of Mount Hood . Broad Newton Clark glacier is draped across the east side of the mountain, and has many outlets that form dozens of waterfalls during the summer runoff. Gnarl Ridge is named for the twisted, ancient whitebark pines that survive the elements here.
