Umtanum Creek Canyon — Monday, Mar. 2, 2020

Central Washington > Yakima

It was great Monday March 2nd hike . 3 dogs and 3 humans . Warm and sunny , no wind , no bugs . Zero people on the trail . My lab absolutely loved it as he was getting in the creek every 5 minutes. Consider always to wear long pants even hot summer days as sage and other bushes are all over . Save your legs . Previous time we hiked it , lost the trail and end up turning around . So this time We had app to fallow the trail as you will  get off of it not knowing. We have Gaia GPS and love it . Yes $5 cash parking fee required. Clean bathrooms. Look for big horn sheep on your way out to main HWY ( after hike my friend saw them , around 4:30 pm ) , just outside the area after hike . They are there along the river . You will see them if driving slow and looking . Great easy hike for us and dogs . Flat .Yes will cross the creek couple times .
