We only had 9 hikers
yesterday. Four of our strongest hikers, Richard, Ray, Rheo and Jane were not
with us. Richard and Ray were scouting out a future hike down past Grants Pass.
This time we drove North to
Cottage Grove then turned east past Dorena Lake to Brice creek. We started off
at about 1900 feet and climbed up to about 2900 feet to the base of a water
falls. We did see quite a bit of snow but the day was beautiful and excellent
for hiking. Richard as I mentioned was not with us so no fabulous pictures this
time. One interesting feature was walking behind the water falls. Hope you can
make it out okay.
Lots of old growth trees
and an amazing number that have fallen and are now covered with moss and fern.
