13.8 miles of hiking • 1750' elevation gain •
I left the house just before 6am and made a quick stop at Denny's for a quality pre-hike meal. I met a buddy just after 7am in troutdale and we were Eagle Creek bound. We were hoping to beat the masses of people out there this morning and at least have a quiet hike to Tunnel Falls. Apparently, everyone else had the same idea. Which really was no surprise on a nice Saturday in the middle of June, but who says one can't be hopeful! All and all, we had a great day hiking and playing around with a few different photo experiments, but we will have to return again soon and apply our lessons learned.
