Coby and Jacquie joined Bill and me for a hike up Mt. Townsend.
This was the first hike we took Coby on when he was a teenager around 13 years ago. It was Jacquie's first time on this trail.
THE WILDFLOWERS ARE GORGEOUS in the upper meadows both before and after Camp Windy right now!
We had a few biting flies at the summit even though we used bug spray. They were not as bad as 2 weeks ago.
The trail is snow free now. There is one fairly large blowdown in the first 1/4 mile but it is passable.
The views from the summit were magnificent...Mt. Rainier to Baker on one side and other Olympic peaks and up to Victoria on the other. We enjoyed a leisurely lunch at the top then headed back down. It was a great hike and really nice day together!
