We wanted to see the frogs again so we waited for another sunny day and headed back to CCC Road: Blowout Creek Trail. The short parking area had one car when we arrived at 1 pm on Friday. On July 4th, that little pullout was full, as were the 2 new parking areas nearby.
The road walk is where you'll see mountain views as you get higher. Once you hit blowout creek, you're done with the uphill. The log over the creek has been flattened out more since we were here last summer.
It took a couple of creek crossings to see frogs. The first one we saw was tiny, adorable. Then we saw many more of varying sizes. The bugs came and went as did the areas of the trail that were overgrown.
4.4 miles in total. Back down to the car by 3:30. One other car in the pullout. We saw no other hikers the whole time but we DID see: Frogs, tad poles, Pacific jumping mice, snakes, slugs, snails and many bees, flies and mosquitoes.
