A bluebird day! Hiking with the boys and their girlfriends is always a treat! Temps in the 40s - warm for this time of year. The Champney Falls Trail was really wet due to the recent rains. Lots of standing/running water, mud, etc. The wind near the summit was intense - I chose to forego the summit, but the kids went ahead and managed not to get blown off the mountain. Did I mention that the trail was really wet? |
