Cloud Cap, Oregon, United States

Color Zone: Light Blue
Is Camping Allowed? Yes, at Cloud Cap Saddle or Tilly Jane Campgrounds
Entrance Fee? $5
Description: Cloud Cap is located at 6,000 feet elevation on the northeast side of Mount Hood. The road up here is a bit rough and steep. The air is exceptionally clear because of the altitude. There’s a light dome from Portland to the west, but the rest of the sky is very dark, with great views of Hood to the south. The best observing spot would be at the top of the road right next to the historic inn, where there aren’t too many trees in the way.
