Dalles Mountain Hike (kind of)

0

Shane and I went on a day hike out to see the wildflowers. Unfortunately, the WTA reference we used was horribly inaccurate or too vague about where we were supposed to go, and so we lost the trail through random land and probably ended up wandering through private property. We climbed the unnamed 2800' mountain next to where we initially intended, saw tons of flowers, and finished the day at Double Mountain Brewery. Good weather while we were out.

If only every hike could end at Double Mountain. . .

"Climb the mountains of pizza and beer to get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The beer will blow their own freshness into you, and the pizza their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn."

Sounds like a fun hike, especially the Double Mountain Brewery part.

Just added the photos from the trip—tons of flowers.

Double Mountain is, by far, the finest beer and pizza that I've had anywhere.
