Ascent of Diamond Peak on 2011-10-15| Date: | Saturday, October 15, 2011 | | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | | Peak: | Diamond Peak | | Location: | USA-Oregon | | Elevation: | 2440 ft / 743 m |
Ascent Trip ReportI approached Diamond Peak from the road that parallels the Siletz River on the west side of the peak. I found the gate open, but it was posted as a Travel Management Area with controlled access for motor vehicles during hunting season. Since I was not hunting, and the gate was open I drove up, stayed left at all intersections and found myself at the top of a clearcut on the west ridge of Diamond Peak. It was an easy climb up through a nicely timbered slope to the summit. No views because of the trees.
