Sam's Throne Trailhead (and it's
raining!) |
Our first view of Big Creek Valley |
Did I mention it was raining? |
Hiking along the top of the bluff |
|
We would squeeze through this? |
|
....and we did make it through! |
Taking shelter under a bluff |
If you looked up, you would get
a face full of water! |
Rock Climbers Paridise |
We seemed to always be looking up? |
|
A nice cave along the way |
I guess this is an Indian Pictograph? |
Nice square corner |
Heading up to Sam's Throne |
After Rishubh and myself, it was
Carolyn |
|
Next it was La Dona |
...and she makes it! |
|
Joe was next..... |
And yes, it was still raining.... |
LaDona on top of Sam's Throne |
Our view from the top....not too good! |
It was wet on the bottom and
wet on the top! |
Searching for Sam's preaching spot. |
Nice hair! |
Now back down |
|
Now to find a nice dry spot for lunch |
We took the first dry spot...we found.
|
|
Hot soup would have been good! |
Maria trying to dry off! Good luck! |
Heading back (in the rain!) |
Nice bag worms |
|
Not sure how these pine trees
grow on the bluffs? |
|
It was easy to get lost in the fog |
Rishubh doing some rock climbing |
Hike almost over and still no view |
No view, but we did have rain....
did I mention that?
|
|
I understand now why most of our folks
stayed home.....they were SMART!!!! |
