Warnings

The 50 ft figure for Sundial Rock comes from a single listing and has not been independently verified. Winter floods reshuffle boulders and sink logs here every year, so a pool that was 12 ft deep last August may be 4 ft now. Depth, current, and submerged logs shift with the season and nobody monitors them. The approach can wash out in wet months.

Access

South Molalla Forest Road south of Molalla; free roadside turnout and a short trail down to the rock.

Best conditions

August and September at low flow.
