Staircase Rapids Hike

Today Pam & I hiked at Staircase Rapids.  It's about 7 miles further than Big Creek where we had our first Yoh! adventure.  A weather alert was posted, but we decided to risk the storm that came down from Alaska.  Boy did we get soaked.   The only thing that stayed dry were my feet...can I just say that my Vasque hiking shoes are AWESOME!?!  Anyway, we still had a great time.  I just love the sound of rushing water and the river was really beautiful.  We hiked about 3 miles in all.

I'm bummed this didn't come out more clear.  The camera lens kept fogging over.  That big rock overhang was so cool.

This little area is Beaver Flats.  This would be an awesome place to come in the summer & just dip your feet.  Unfortunately we didn't see any beavers.


I loved the fog in the background & the yellow leaves.
