T-Bag is a short, easy out-and-back hike in southern Oregon, about a mile from Klamath Falls. The route is just under a mile long, with a total elevation gain of about 50 feet, so it's a quick stop for anyone already in town. The trail is nearly flat, with the steepest stretch coming early on, about 0.06 miles from the start. The high point is around 4,401 feet, and the low point is about 4,361 feet. The whole trip takes roughly half an hour. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 86°F with only about two wet days, while winter highs sit in the low 40s. Several other hikes sit within a few tenths of a mile, including Cutter, Southie and the Link River Trail. Cougar Rock Boulders, a climbing area, is about 5 miles away.
