Trailhead in Mt. Hood National Forest
The trailhead is on the 1340 Forest Road at the south end of Lost Lake Campground. There is room for 5 cars and there are toilets within 100 yards. The campground is to the north. The Old Skyline Trail is a slightly more difficult trail, Its is 2.5 miles long and It connects the Lake Branch of the Cascades trail on the north side of the lake, with Jones Creek Road on the South side.
**Lost Lake is currently limiting parking capacity within the campground and resort area to 50%. Friday-Monday, a road barricade is staffed 4 miles below the entrance to the resort. Once parking capacity has reached 50% vehicles will be turned around at that location. This is the result of parking congestion along the roadways accessing the campground and resort. The congestion has made it difficult for emergency personnel to access the site.**
