Wilderness Peak Trail

Six weeks til Peru!

Today we hiked the Wilderness Peak Trail in the Cougar Mountain Regional Wildlife Park. It was supposed to be a 3.5 mile loop, but we were a little confused at the top as the names on the trail signs didn't match those in our 8 year old hiking book. We made it back but my gps said we walked 5.3 miles. It took us a little over 2 1/2 hours.

We went early to try to beat the rain, but still got a soaking about half way through the hike.

The trail goes along a little creek.

 

 

There were glacial erratics along the trail. We took this selfie using our little gorilla tripod.

There was a little bog at the top with a log walk across it. This trail is very well maintained.
