Rock Creek 910 is a short, easy hike in the Barlow Ranger District of Mt. Hood National Forest in Oregon, managed by the Forest Service. The trail is about 1.2 miles long and rises roughly 130 feet from its starting point, with the high point at about 5,391 feet. The climb is front-loaded, with the steepest stretch at about 0.17 miles in, and the route is out and back. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Government Camp show July and August highs around 70°F with only about four wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-30s and rain on most days. That station sits well below the trail, so temperatures on the hike run cooler. The trip takes about half an hour. Rocky Butte Trail is just 0.2 miles away, and Rock Creek 904 is 0.8 miles off. Boulder Lake campground is about 1.6 miles away, and Bonney Meadows campground is about 2.6 miles away.
