Well – that was a lovely surprise: a snow free trail – a spectacular canyon – lunch on a sunny beach – a great 14K hike through beautiful woods and along pretty creeks – well – the surprises just continued to arrive!

This is now officially one of my very favourite shoulder season hikes.

That is all. A great day with wonderful people – more hikes planned in the next few days.

Yay!

I’ll just let the pictures do the talking.
