Umtanum Creek Canyon — Sunday, Apr. 20, 2025

Central Washington > Yakima
Umtanum Creek Canyon by hikingwithlittledogs

It’s been a great week for flower hikes. This trail is in good shape. The creek crossing was no problem. Wildlife mostly consisted of vultures that seemed to be with us from beginning to end. We also saw one baby snake that slithered away before I could take a pic.
The Yakima River Canyon road is beautiful in the spring. We saw a small herd of big horn sheep on the drive out.
Our little old dog hiked a lot of miles this week. He didn’t protest when we out him in the backpack for the last few miles.
