Mid-40's and sunny. Went to this area as there several alternative hikes in the area and we wanted one without ice. It is a relatively new trail and there is not yet a map.
There was water - 5 minutes into the hike
But no ice and only a couple of small patches of snow that were not on the trail.
A stream on Goose Ridge Trail
Lots more water on this trail - contrasty light gave me problems
but the trail was clear of ice and snow
Heading back on Goose Ridge there was a barrier that required a large bushwhack for Kelley to get around.
Near the end - the same pool as the start
Turned out to be a pretty good hike. The trail goes up and down hills so we got a little workout. Kelley had to work around some of the water crossings - the trail is not worn down like an older trail would be - I had to be more aware of where I was stepping. Kelley seemed to enjoy it anyway and did well. 1 3/4 hours
Hi John--looks like you've been having a warm spell--no snow---Hooray!
ReplyDeleteCame back home to most of the snow gone and that's always a relief.
Enjoy the day
Hi Sue - yes, it's been a weird winter - good day to you too.
DeleteWow - the snow melted fast. Love all the water for Kelley.
ReplyDeleteYes, we had several warm days - Kelley was very happy with all the water- I didn't show all the times she got into it.
DeleteLots of swim time for Kelley today!
ReplyDeleteHi Linda - yes, a good day for her.
