Selah Butte — Tuesday, Mar. 10, 2020

Took a conditioning hike up to the top of Selah Butte yesterday evening, only person on the trail.  Parking lot has a good bit of garbage in it, I will have to remember to bring a bag for next time.  Trail is in good shape, really starting to dry out with the warmer weather we have had so no mud to speak of.  Not dusty yet but the dry weather really makes the trail more slippy on the way down in my opinion with the loose rock and dirt.  A little windy at the top but when is it not?  Other than that a great conditioner for bigger peaks later in the summer.  My GPS shows this at 2.8 miles round trip with just under 1600 foot elevation gain, up and back in just under an hour.  Can't get that kind of workout at the gym and it's only a short drive, got to love the canyon conditioner hikes!
