5.5 miles of hiking • 1000' elevation gain •
Had a ton of yardwork to do, but slipped away for a couple hours in the afternoon to go explore Whipple Creek Park again. Hadn't been in here in 15-20 years or so, because it was SO DAMN MUDDY the last time. But it seems the WTA has been putting in a lot of good work, and the trails are really in very nice shape. (Especially given the horrid winter we've had!)
Had to cross trails with a half-dozen horses, or so, as well as two unleashed German Shepherds (wth is wrong with people?), so that was kinda fun with my dog. He'd never encountered horses "in the wild" before. This is a great "new" option to add to local leg-stretchers! I'll be back.
