     This lake is located in the wonderful Central Cascade Range. In the event that you don't mind getting soaked, you can always go whitewater paddling on Abiqua Creek; if you're here you can take a hike along the Pine Crest Trail. The high level of precipitation makes Moss Lake a reasonably wet place; most of the rain falls all through December, and July is the month with the least moisture.
This lake is so wonderful. Having a brilliant time in the Central
 
   Cascade Range is simple. Dry warm beds await you at Oregon Garden Resort, and why not camp at Silver Falls State Park since you're here at Moss Lake. Through the warmest time of the year at Moss Lake highs are regularly in the 70's, and through summer nights temperatures are in the 50's. Highs through the wintertime are regularly in the 40's with winter lows in the 30's overnight here at Moss Lake.
But wait, there's more enjoyable things to do in the Central
 
               Cascade Range. On a fine day at Moss Lake you can take a hike along the Snow Peak Mill City Trail, and lakes are such peaceful sites, why not pop by Betty Jane Deardorff Reservoir. This lake is so wonderful. Whitewater paddling is magnificent on Silver Creek, and camping is available at Camp Dakota. If you're here at Moss Lake, you could stop by Cedar Creek, and there is a brilliant hiking trail nearby called the Crabtree Lake Trail.
Just can't get enough of Moss Lake. If you need a place to stay Canby Country Inn is a brilliant choice, and a gorgeous lake like Neil Beyer Reservoir is a perfect location to have a look at.

Pine Crest Trail
12 miles away
.... Mollala Forest Rd narrows and now effectively ends. Actually, it continues, but the road is impeded by a gate sporting many 'no trespassing' signs and marking it 'private property'. When we got to this point, we were just about to turn around and go home when another car drove past us onto the road. Having driven for several hours to get there, we dared to venture further, and followed the car despite the many warnings on the gate. Now, if you are reading this please heed my advice... never do what we did. Do not try to find this trail. Listen to signs. They are usually there for a reason. We could not locate the next road to turn on because all the old street signs had been removed and all of the old turn-offs warned away the unauthorized with huge boulders blocking the road, locked gates and more no-trespassing signs. After taking some pictures of beautifully dilapidated country houses, we decided to call it a day and return home empty handed. However, when we got to the gate we came in through, we found that while we were away, someone had closed and locked it. We were trapped, ...
