Key Stats for the Pyramid Butte Trail - 740
About
The Pyramid Butte trail is an abandoned trail that is in very good shape. There is some trail damage due to the Pyramid Butte fire in 2010, but the trail is easily followed once you find the correct trail junction. The trail track listed here has a waypoint with the location of the trail junction as well as where it joined the Skyline trail. Once at the junction, take a right at the next two junctions to get to the top of the butte. Trail is steep, but well graded. The views from the top of Pyramid Butte are outstanding. The footbridge mentioned in some trail descriptions and referenced on the topo map burned up in the fire in 2010 and has not been replaced.
Directions
Trail is not directly accessible via a road. Closest access is via the PCT access point at Breitenbush Lake. Refer to the PCT trail page for directions.
I’m sure am glad there’s photo of that sign. It’s gone now. Hopefully the Forest Service removed it and has it on display somewhere. It was a really good example of the sign making artistry of it’s era.
