Silver Falls Loop, Grove of the Patriarchs Loop

Cayuse Pass opened this week so we headed for Silver Falls. We found Ohanapecosh Campground closed blocking access to the trailhead so we found the .3 mile the trail from the road to the falls and parked along the road. Silver Falls is flowing fast but in places the water is calm and a pretty shade of aqua. We followed the trail upstream heading for the Grove of the Patriarchs and came across a few spots of snow on the trail that are easy to cross. The suspension bridge that leads to the grove of ancient trees was fun to cross and the water below was crystal clear.
