Be sure to look for Takagnome
in todays hike.
(Not Kaiden, the other thing!)

Exploring a cave
This wet spot inside the cave wall
looks like a tree on a bluff?
Some of the repellers....
Look who is second to climb up on
Sam's Throne!
Orvalene takes her turn
Lila makes it...
Kathie's turn
...and Kaiden is right behind her.
Nanette arrives to the top safely
Terrence
....and last but not least...Char...
so where is Radio?
It was time for lunch on the Throne!
The sun felt good....
....and a nap felt good too!
On top of the world....
Takagnome was a little nervous up here!
All of us made it on top.....now back down!
Tikki waiting his turn to come down.
Terry, come on down!
Linda makes it look easy.
One more giant step for Kathie
Radio was wondering what the "cross"
was all about?
Ready for our exit out!
Our own version of Tea Table Rock
We encounter more rock climbers
on the way out.
One last group picture with
Sam's Throne in the background

Kaiden chose hiking over the State Fair....

It was a perfect day to be out hiking,
