(Well, it was the first hike for Melissa. The others went to a cave awhile ago.)
It was a warm day. The breeze from the wind blowing across the snow was nice.
We didn’t make it all the way to the waterfall. We’re a little out of shape at this point in the season and the snow made the hiking a little more difficult in places. Still it was great to spend a few hours out in the sun looking at the beauty of God’s creations.
The switchbacks at the beginning of the trail are always a tough climb. We marveled at those who had the stamina to run up this portion of the trail and felt a little envious of those riding horses.
Ahhh, Nature.
This was where we decided to turn around. It looked as if the rest of the trail was probably covered in snow and we'd been hiking for about an hour.
Sometime in the next few weeks we hope to hike the trail again and make it to the waterfall. We’ll see how the weather turns out. It’s seems strange to go from a day near 70′s to a day where it’s cold enough to snow, but that’s what the weather forecasters are saying.
