Ladee 804 is a 6-mile out-and-back hike on natural surface in the Clackamas River Ranger District of Mt. Hood National Forest, managed by the Forest Service. The trail climbs about 775 feet round trip, from a low of roughly 2,215 feet to a high of about 2,444 feet, with the steepest stretch at about 11% grade near mile 2.4. The route is rated hard. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from the Three Lynx weather station, 7 miles away and well below the trail, show July and August highs around 78 to 79°F with only four or five wet days a month.

The North Fork Clackamas River, a paddling route, lies about 1.2 miles away. Carter Bridge campground is about 2.5 miles from the trail.
