This video describes the route from the Mt. Thielsen trail head, on Hwy. 138 near Diamond Lake, to the Chicken Ledge at the base of the Mt. Thielsen summit pinnacle. The hike is 5 miles each way and gains 3700' in elevation. Some scrambling up loose slopes is necessary to get to the top. The route is in the Mt. Thielsen Wilderness and crosses the Pacific Crest Trail at the 4 mile mark then follows a climbers trail along a ridge for the remainder of the climb. The summit pinnacle is about 80' of class 4 climbing that can be done without protection. I would have liked to make it to the peak, but, with no one else around to climb with, decided against it. The ridge that the route follows is very scenic and offers great views on a clear day. We took about 7 hours to complete this hike although some may be faster or slower. We generally are not in a hurry when we hike and get sidetracked often.
