Duckabush River Trail


This morning Pam, Victoria & I hiked the Duckabush River Trail #803.  The forecast was for 50% chance of rain.  We must have gotten the right 50% because we were greeted by beautiful blue skies at the trail head.  It was a little chilly, but overall great hiking weather.  We walked approximately 5 miles in & back, stopping for lunch next to the river.  We could see some of the fire damage from last year's fire, but the trail itself was very well maintained with just a couple spots of water & mud.  The foliage was gorgeous.  Overall, I would rate this as an outstanding hike!

I absolutely love this photo that Pam took...really cool & weird looking tree roots.
