Yellow Lake — Tuesday, Dec. 27, 2022

We had a couple of hours to kill in between various appointments today so we headed to Yellow Lake for a short hike with our three littles, aged 9, 7, and 2.5. The trail is gentle enough for our toddler to do “by my own self” with two stops for chocolate-covered dried blueberries and a drink of water. There is great tree cover here for rainy days, and a lot to entertain small children on this trail. We saw several types of ducks, a salamander right on the trail, an amazing beaver lodge at the viewpoint for Tiger Mtn, explored the exercise equipment strewn along various spots on the trail, found all the fairy & gnome houses (located towards the end of the trail close to the playground). The playground is also a big draw so we spent some time there before heading out again. This is a quiet, hidden gem on a weekday, go check it out sometime!
