Hike Sat Sept 4th

You're probably all waiting for a trip report from my adventures on Sunday.

Well, you're going to have to wait a bit longer.

In the meantime, check your calendars (and the weather forecast, after today's obscene display by mother nature) and let me know if you are interested in going hiking this Saturday, Sept 4th.

Yes, it's Labor Day weekend. I'm hiking anyway. Shocker, eh?

Happy Trails!

Itinerary for 8/29/10

Hike itinerary for 8/29/10

Tentative plan is to hike to Excelsior Pass via Damfino Lakes off the Mt. Baker Highway with Kris, Kevin and a few of their friends.

We'll possibly carpool from Bellingham or maybe just meet up in Maple Falls which would allow me a little head start if I decide to swing by Artist Point (if there is time) after we finish our business on Excelsior.

Plans will be finalized on Saturday, so this post may be edited before the Sunday morning departure as necessary.

And now for something completely different (not really):

Earlier this week I went for a nice run through Whatcom Falls park. I had my phone with me, so you can imaging I had to stop for a few pics along the way. May as well add them here, ya think?

There was a bride having her picture taken at the top of Whatcom Falls:

Found the Pedestrian Walkway that crosses Alabama Hill:

Found the little pond near Lake Whatcom:

Found the old Railroad Trestle bridge:

Watched some cliff jumpers at the smaller falls:

It was the best run in a long time.  Wish they were all this pleasant.

Happy Trails!

Sunday Destination possibilities

Considering Hidden Peak Lookout, Church Mountain or Thornton Lakes/Trappers Peak for the upcoming Sunday hike.

Contact me if you are interested in hiking with me that day.

As usual, the plan can (and probably will) change as the date approaches.  If I know you are interested you'll be much more likely to find out about the changes sooner rather than later.

Happy Trails!
