Beautiful wildflowers.

Hiked Noble Knob on Saturday. Started late (10:30am). The trail is in great condition. Just had to hop over 2-3 small trees across the trail, nothing big. The weather was kind of cool so there were no bugs out. Could see Mt. Rainier about half-way up the trail, but by the time we got to Noble Knob, it was all fogged in and we couldn't see anything except down in the valley. Passed three bear hunters on the way up. EVERYBODY MAKE SURE TO WEAR BRIGHT COLORS WHILE HIKING!!! We saw no bear and also missed the White River elk herd that we heard was bedded down earlier in the morning. The hike is only 7 miles round trip, but it was harder than I thought it would be. There were a few steep hills. I thought that it would be just a half day hike, but ended up being a full day hike for us. But, the wild flowers were beautiful and it was a great day!
