Description:
On the Oregon side (west) of the Snake River opposite the Kleinschmidt Grade, Hess Road climbs straight up out of Hells Canyon along 7 steep miles with multiple sharp switch-backs and some significant exposure. The views are spectacular. This road is very difficult to negotiate when wet. Jason Abbott (one of our own) provides good photos and a description of Hess Road in his Trailimage post below.
