We went up the South side of the canyon on a very old road until we reached the Saddle, then we kept to the South side of the saddle looking for antlers. Didn't find any antlers there but we did find lots of the Pasque wild flowers in various stages of growth. When we got to the Alder Cr. drainage we turned North for about a half mile and ate our lunch at our old "lunch spot by the boulders". Then we went on North for a ways to the lightening blasted tree we found last year (so much power released in such a short time!!)
Then we went up the hill East looking for antlers and Bob found one so we didn't get skunked! We followed game trails on around the hill until we got above the spring and we made our way down the steep hill to the spring. Bob Seago hadn't been to the spring so he was glad for the trip. Even though we didn't find as many antlers as we hoped to, Pat summed up the hike "the wild flowers made it worth the effort"..........................
We will hike Monday at 9AM, Wayne will have another interesting outing for us to enjoy, so bring your lunch, water and a friend.
