A beautiful sunny day for a relaxing hike along the White River. I had helped WTA two weeks ago do some trail maintenace on this trail and I wanted to show my wife our efforts. The trail looked great where we had worked, but down the trail we ran into some standing water and three blowdowns. The trail was easy and very relaxing as we went to the waterfalls (about 3 miles from the trailhead) and ate a snack. This is a good hike for beginners and little legs. The suspension bridge provides some excitement and the elevation gain is minimal. There are some huge old growth trees that make you feel like you are in the deep forest and provide good scenery for the beginning hiker. You parallel the White River and see its swift current carrying the milky glacier runoff. Great day hiking is always a good mental health day from work.
