East Alder Creek

Six of us took a short one up E. Alder Creek, One rolled a stone, sat down, then limped quite a ways.

Harry brought the red "ambulance." Judy's using a walker for a while.

The rest of us are ready for another trail next Monday at 9 a.m. The weather may tell you whether or not you'll need snowshoes or not.

Join us! We won't knock you down!

--Wayne, Pat, MayeBelle, Joyce, Doug (Judy will be healing and cooking)

The forest is lovely. We saw Ponderosa and limber pines, Douglas-fir, White fir, Rocky Mtn. and Common junipers, plus lovely aspens. We forgot to look for alders along the dry stream. The snow is still scanty, mostly evaporated.

Look at what I did!  I thought downhill was easier!

Time to rest the twisted ankle.
