Lovely foot bridge
We took our friend out for her first real hike on Saturday and this was a perfect starter hike. It's around 6 miles roundtrip but completely flat. The trail conditions were excellent.
We started out early in the morning and had the trail completely to ourselves for most of the way. We did pass a camp site, but they were still asleep. The lush green of the forest was amazing this time of year. Everything was dappled in early morning sunshine and the river was a peaceful companion as we made our way through the old growth.
It was an excellent morning and I would definitely recommend it for small children and those new to outdoor adventures.
