There was only 1 car at the TH when we arrived at the TH about 10:00 AM. Today Lena Creek did not leave us "high and dry" to quote Craig Romano in his Day Hiking Olympic Peninsula book! When we reached the beautiful mossy rocks area just prior to the first bridge at 1.9 miles,there was water over the trail which would have taken me 3 ankle deep steps to cross. If Bob hadn't just had rotator cuff surgery there was an area to the right of the trail where he thinks we could have crossed under a log and on rocks. The bridge was not in sight at our turn back point, but I'm sure it was just around the corner. We met 3 backpackers and one other group as we returned to the TH.
