We took a short hike from our site and followed the river downstream a little over a mile to the first boat/float in campsites. The round trip was under 2.5 miles but the trail was very rough and rocky, with rocks about the size of tennis balls. We were somewhat surprised at how tiring this hike was because we routinely walk 3.5-4 miles nearly every day at home. But when you take into consideration the elevation of ~6300 feet, and the rocks, and the temps, and the lack of humidity, it was tiring.
Here are some pics of our hike beside the river:
We were the only two people on this trail both going and returning.
Now for those of you who like a bit of a scavenger hunt, in the picture below, there are two magpies in the trees.
OBSERVATION:
As you know, we have traveled a lot all over the place. Why is it, no matter the geographic location, women will commandeer the men's rest room rather than waiting their turn in the women's rest room? I have never been party to commandeering the women's rest room! I have to say it somewhat annoys me when I walk up to the men's rest room and a woman jumps out of nowhere and says "you can't go in here there are women still in there." REALLY?
Found the magpies!
ReplyDeleteAs for the restroom, it is easier for a man to use a tree than a woman…. Just sayin….
Keep hiking!
Loving the pics and am a little jealous!
Hi from Huntersville,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your adventures. You certainly are experiencing some amazing moments.
Be safe,
Those rocks sound painful! I'm sorry we couldn't send you a little of the 90% humidity we're having here😏
ReplyDeleteTo answer your question....I would venture to say in most cases it's due to desperation and NOT lack of patience...😁
Glenn, Get Woke. Just declare yourself as a woman and go on in.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of that Marco! I will do just that and tell everyone you advised me.
