About Scouters Mountain
Scouters Mountain is a summit in Oregon, about a mile from the town of Happy Valley. It sits at the center of a small cluster of trails. The Boomer Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and the Scouters Mountain Regional Trail is 0.2 mile away. That makes it an easy add-on for a short outing close to town. For the most comfortable conditions, plan on late spring or early fall. Typical highs reach the low 70s in May and the upper 70s in September, based on averages from a nearby weather station in Oregon City. That station sits roughly 800 feet below the summit, so expect temperatures up top to run somewhat cooler. Nearby, the Happy Valley Park Trails are 0.7 mile away. For climbing, Yellow Wall and Carver Bouldering are both about 3.7 miles from the summit.
