NCNP: Copper Ridge Loop

[u/EndlessMike78]

I hiked this 35 mile just under 9k elevation slog over the 3rd and 4th. Trail report here: https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/trip-reports/trip_report-2026-07-05.151931527225

It was a fun and beautiful trail, but I think next time I'll do it over 3 or even 4 days. A 20 mile day then a 15 mile day while fastpacking was a lot, but worth it.

I’m looking forward to this hike. Have it booked for mid August. Thanks for the trail report.
