Swift Creek (Mt. St. Helens)

Mt. St. Helens area prospect.

From the parking pullout, follow the road back towards the bridge. Just before crossing, jump the jersey barrier on the north side. Follow old user / game trails all the way down the ridge into the creek right to the top of R1. The forest is relatively open and easy going.

There may be additional obstacles in the narrows. Multiple crossings of strong areas of flow may be necessary within the narrows.
