This was our favorite Redwoods Hike, lots of jaw dropping understory and very natural and "real" feeling, unlike some other groves.

July 12, 2014 acorn woodpecker Bald Mountain 4 miles 1,250 feet gained
Took the whole family up to Bald Mt. HOT DAY! Beautiful views, of course. Wildflowers great. Even some wild blueberry ready to eat along McGee Creek trail. Such a nice quiet option and a little more of a work out to Bald Mt or McNeil Point.

WE spent two days in Oceanside and were able to visit the Lost Boys beach at an early minus tide. We also visited Maxwell Mountain, Tunnel Beach, Whalen Island, Cape Lookout's South Beach, and Cape Kiwanda x2. Then we left the comfy beach vacation rental and backpacked up the Bayocean Spit and spent a just as comfortable night in the dunes. Brought two bikes...

Sadly the abundant wildlife was all taking a siesta.
July 10, 2014 Team Reynolds Gross Creek 5 miles 250 feet gained
The rock formations were amazing and we saw MULTIPLE squadrons of Pelicans while on the beach flying north. It was our first Pelican encounter of many on this week of adventures.
July 10, 2014 Team Reynolds Eel Creek Campground 1.5 miles 250 feet gained
Awesome morning leg stretcher to visit some big dunes all by ourselves. Next time we will do the whole trail to the beach. Very cool

Romantic moonrise hike out to an overlook and beach in a jut-out on the lake. What a beautiful lake...

July 9, 2014 Team Reynolds Siltcoos Lagoon 4.5 miles 250 feet gained
Great hike, saw harbor seals, huge crayfish, had to ford the Siltcoos on the beach and saw a family of river otters fishing for lunch. I recommend this one.

Easy lake day in the sun. Stopped by Little Crater lake, then walked from the dam to Meditation Point on Timothy Lake. No bugs, level hike, beautiful lake views.

July 6, 2014 Pablo Mt Defiance 9.5 miles 4,250 feet gained
From Gorge Classic Climbs a hike up a ridge west of Defiance Trail originating out of Lindsey Creek. Tough going to start following old logging roads covered with blowdown from a storm a couple of years ago. Once on the ridge the going is pretty good. Hooked up with Defiance Trail at around the 3800' level and went by Warren Lake to return on Starvation Ridg...

Mileage I probably shouldn't have done on my injured knee. But the freezing waters of Bear Creek served as a wonderful, natural ice pack. Very lovely hike to an old locked up guard station.

July 5, 2014 Karl Coldwater Peak 18 miles 3,750 feet gained
Another great day in the blast zone! Did the "classic" loop, going up South Coldwater Ridge past several logging relics destroyed in the 1980 eruption, ultimately winding up to Saint Helens Lake for the ultimate "lunch with a view!" After that, our descent slid progressively into the tourist (flipflops and spandex) zone as we meandered closer and closer to J...
July 5, 2014 Jen Deep Lake 5.5 miles 1,500 feet gained
Still some snow above 4800 feet, but Deep and Cultus Lake are melted out. The bugs are just about gone, might be bad at dusk, but not mid day. Jumped in for a swim, 4 teenagers from PDX, Chicago and NYC, plus one 50 year old mama in an alpine lake. Then we relaxed on the shore, reading, sketching and basking in the sun on a beeyooteeful day. This is what we ...

July 4 to July 6, 2014 Kyle Meyer White Quiver Falls 32 miles 2,000 feet gained 2 nights
Glacier was *amazing.* We spent two nights 13 miles up the Belly River along Glenn Lake. We saw many deer and signs of moose. The most surprising part of the trip was the lack of access to the water though—there was no "beach" to speak of anywhere on the two mile long lake.
July 4 to July 6, 2014 Roman Strawberry Lake 21.5 miles 4,500 feet gained 2 nights
Mix of bushwhacking, hiking on trails, and logging roads. This area has some true jewels, but also some overgrowing-clearcut-like terrain to hike through, to get to the best places. A lot of variety, some places completely destroyed by 1980 eruption, other places mostly intact, sometimes just yards apart. Was surprised how little used these trails are, even ...

This was Sierra trip #2 for the summer: the somewhat well-known North Lake to South Lake loop. For those looking for a “starter” Sierra loop, this is it. About 60 miles, that can be done in as little or as much time as you want. (Another shorter option is to come in over Lamarack Col through Darwin Canyon, which still hits all the good stuff). This trip was ...

Camping at awesome wild beach, not far from the road, but far from campgrounds. Probably the shortest overnight hike I've ever done.
July 3 to July 7, 2014 JM Lower Caribou Lake 27.5 miles 8,500 feet gained 4 nights
Fantastic holiday weekend trek to a new (for me) area. Spent parts of 4 days/nights roaming around a spectacular basin with amazingly beautiful peaks and lakes. The sun was intense and relentless, but made for good swimming in the clear, cold water. My shoulders and legs got burnt, but that's what 4th of July is for, right? Go 'Merica! 8,575' Caribou Mountai...
July 3, 2014 Jen Silver Star Summit 5 miles 1,500 feet gained
Family visiting from NYC, took them up Ed's Trail to enjoy the spectacle as an evening hike. Cloud came down and sat on top of us, but we had nice sunset. Oh that road is terrible!
July 3, 2014 Pablo Pansy Mountain 12 miles 4,000 feet gained
Hiked up Pansy Lake trail to the saddle then on up to top Pansy Mtn, across the connecting ridge to summit Motherload Mtn. Followed the ridge going east to visit a couple of the hidden lakes on the north side of the ridge. Down the hill to intersect Twin Lakes trail. Stopped off at the lookout and returned to the trail head via Dickey Lake trail. Mosquitoes ...
