Pioneer Bridle Trail & Still Creek Side Hike

9.1 miles of hiking • 750' elevation gain •

We wanted an easy hike as our feet have been hurting. This was a very nice hike, and although the weather was nice at the start, it was raining fairly heavily and unrelenting throughout most of the hike. This is a great trail that is fairly level, and we managed to get some great views of the Zigzag River and Still Creek. The trail was basically a stream during the entire return hike. We managed to surpass our total 2013 hiking distance today, in spite of back and knee issues since August! We still have about 15 hiking days left in the year due to holidays and a week vacation, so we'll see what happens?
