Went with my sister - started out for Talapus but decided to keep going to Olallie Lake. Along the way we met a very friendly chipmunk that came very close to us - looked like he wanted to climb our legs! Found little frogs near the lake bed and on then on the way back had a little fat mouse come to say hello. Tons of trees and a lot of shade kept the sun from baking us which made it rather enjoyable considering we were out and about around 1:30pm. Good sets of switchbacks kept us climbing rather steadily on up. Good time!
