Water on trail
This was a nice hike. But, it is quite muddy. It had rained/snowed the night before, and there was quite a bit of traffic on it before and after we did this.

We only went about a mile in, and turned back. Half-way through, the sun started to poke out. And despite all the mud, and a little wind, the trail was generally nice.

We didn't see too much wildlife though; a couple woodpeckers and one duck. Once you get past the hill, you start to really see Lake Crescent. And there were plenty of opportunities to snap some pictures.
