Since I was SOOOOO bad about staying up to date last year I made a pact with my family to just get a few pics up and minimal descriptions in order to keep up with it this year. Black flies were out already - May 7th - but cold weather might knock them back a bit this week. Maybe we'll get one more week and weekend before the hungry swarms!
This hike was a blast! It's almost 2 miles each way and is pretty steep in places. Claire was quite the mountain goat! The nearly 4 mile trek didn't phase her a bit. And we all enjoyed wonderful views of unbroken forest as far as we could see!
Along the trail we came across a junco (slate colored bird that nests on/near the ground) nest. Very cute!This hike was a blast! It's almost 2 miles each way and is pretty steep in places.
