Beacon Rock State Park - Beacon Rock, Beacon Rock State Park - Hamilton Mountain — Saturday, May. 11, 2024

This was my first visit to Beacon Rock State Park and I was impressed.  First I hiked up Beacon Rock, which was much quicker and easier than I thought.  The summit is treed but the views of the river and Hamilton Mountain are great.  After Beacon Rock I took the Hamilton Mountain Trail to see the waterfalls: Hardy Falls, Rodney Falls & Pool of the Winds.  All worth the trip! Wildflowers are blooming: Bleeding hearts, Larkspur.  Lots of birds and their lovely songs along the way.  This is another Washington State Park gem!
