On July 26, Olallie Mountain, W7O/CM-061, was activated for the first time.  Olallie Mountain has an elevation of 5,700 feet and is located in the Three Sisters Wilderness Area of the Willamette National Forest.  The trailhead is reachable by driving 50 miles east from Eugene, Oregon, on State Highway 126 to Aufderheide Road 19.  Between mileposts 45 and 46 on Highway 126, turn right onto Aufderheide Road 19 to the Cougar Reservoir Dam.  At the dam, turn left crossing over it.

Shriner Peak is home to one of the four remaining fire lookout cabins in Mt Rainier National Park.  The 4.5 mile hike is strenuous with rewards of spectacular views of the west side of Mt Rainier plus the six SOTA points.

Directions are from the Seattle Mountaineers book-  Guide to 100 Hikes at Mt Rainier National Park:
