Mount Rose — Sunday, Sep. 11, 2011

Olympic Peninsula > Hood Canal
We arrived just before 9:00a. The hike took us a total of 4.25hours, 3 hours of which were climbing to the top. It was a hard hike, but worth it! The views are grand. The loop around the summit is kinda cool - flowers, cool rock formations. WE brought poles, which is advisable if only to lessen the burden and pound on the steep grade down! Also, bring enough water in the heat. We had 2.5 litres between two humans and a dog and just a few drops were left at the bottom. If you have a filter, you can use it as there are a couple of creek crossings.
