8 miles of hiking • 3000' elevation gain • 1 night

We handed out candy to all moms (three) on our hike up on Mother's Day and dog treats to two dogs. EXTREME sustained wind at the shelter. The shelter on the Timberline Trail is full of snow, but it may have been better to sleep on the snow inside rather than have our tents pelted with sand and wind. Gorgeous morning!
