Tyler takes a hike

Hike to Surprise Creek Trail






Today, Sunday October 28, Jim, Vickie, Scott, Tyler, Mike and I (and Lily) started for a Cougar Mt. Hike. I directed us to Anti-Aircraft Trailhead even though I meant to start at Sky Country Trailhead. We headed out on Shangri La Trail and swept around No Name Trail and back through Surprise Creek Trail. Tyler was alert most of the way and interested in the trees and crunchy leaves underfoot. It was a great hike! The hike lasted about 1 and a half hours after we located the correct trail.

Hike to Sky Country Trailhead



Today, Saturday, October 13, Jim, Vickie, Mike and I hiked from the Redtown Trailhead of Cougar Mt. up to the Sky Country Trailhead. It was a beautiful day, especially for October, and we enjoyed the bright sunlight peaking through the large trees as we headed up and down the slopes. The hike was 3.31 miles long and took 1 hour and 50 minutes or 33.2 minutes per mile.
