Seven healthy, strong hikers, going at a reasonably steady rate. About 8 miles of pleasant up and down walking. Midway snack and turn-around was the grassy area along Trout Creek. Beautiful rock formations.
This was a fine day to stroll through beautiful country. We saw only one small burned area, far away on top of a hill. One of our close-to-home trails, this one deserves your attention with company.
We're still hiking Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday departing the South Fork Visitor Center at 9 a.m. All are welcome; recommend >10 year of age; no charge; bring snack, water, boots, and a poncho. Orange or other highly visible colors recommended in the next 2 months.
