Foster Falls 5.1.18

Oh what a beautiful day.  The weather was absolutely perfect with clear blue skies.   We got off to bit of a shaky start when the hike leader forget the earlier start time.  This person's name will, of course, not be mentioned.  This was quickly resolved however with a phone call.  It was about a 45 minute drive to the trailhead and once we all arrived, the hike was on.  The hike distance was only about 1.7 miles, but it was an absolutely beautiful 1.7 miles.  The time of the hike was about 1hr and 50min.  I am so happy that we have found some new trails to hike.  We did find a new nickname for one of our regular hikers.  He shall forever now be known as Stop Sign Bob.  The reason for this unusual nickname will also be lost in antiquity.   I would rate this hike as moderate-severe as there was one section over the rocks that was quite steep.  I of course fell and tore my brand new cargo pants.  Following the hike we had an absolutely scrumptious lunch at the Mountain Goat Market.  If you would like to see a bunch of photos including one short video and a graph of the hike, click here. 

Sitton Gulch 4.28.18

Oh what a beautiful morning. I’m sorry any of you had to miss this hike. The weather was wonderful, the greenery was greener than ever and the water was roaring all the way down. There were only 6 of us on this easy - to moderate  4 mile hike. Everyone took lots of pictures of the waterfalls and the flowers. On the way down from the falls we stopped for a short break next to the water.
