Price Peak
About
Price Peak is a summit in Oregon, about 4.3 miles from the small community of Kings Valley. Summer is the driest window here. At a nearby weather station in Corvallis, typical July and August highs reach the low 80s with only about four wet days a month. That station sits roughly 1,350 feet lower than the peak, so temperatures on top run cooler. The PP Summit Trail and Iris Meadow hike are both about 0.7 miles away, as is the Stick in the Eye mountain bike trail. Paddlers can head to Soap Creek, about 7 miles off.
