6.5 miles of hiking • 500' elevation gain •
After work exploration of the CRT. I've never had the opportunity to do it, so decided to check it out. Made it to the trailhead at Fish Creek about 5pm and headed upstream. The trail is "Closed" at some pretty hairy washouts at mile 2. Someone has placed a helpful rope along the bank, but I wouldn't recommend crossing the washouts. They are very unstable and dangerous. I unwisely decided to continue on, but DON'T DO IT. Are you convinced yet?
I made my way beyond the closure and continued a few more miles down to a nice flat section along the river and had some snacks and wondered how far I was from Pup Creek falls. Not too far it turns out. I went up the slippery trail along the little creek to some falls that made a nice turn around point.
