Mt. Jefferson is always there in the Doug. If you climb into the Mt. Jefferson wilderness to Russell Lake and look south at Mt. Jefferson, as shown above, or reach Jefferson Park, just west of the peak, as shown to the right, a close up view of Mt. Jefferson is breath taking. | Photo courtesy of George Wuerthner |
Seen from a more distant peak or ridge, Mt. Jefferson still captures the attention of anyone who glances east. |

Near or far, Mt. Jefferson has dominated the Doug since it was named by Lewis and Clark |
