Despite the fact that it poured all Thursday night, we woke up to blue skies yesterday. It was quite windy but temps went into the 60's and it was a beautiful day so we decided to go for a hike. We started out at Big Creek trail which is probably 5 or 6 miles from the cabin. The trail started in wide open fields and headed up. With the winds, it was actually quite cool even though we had jackets and hats on. We hiked a bit and then decided to try another trail down the road.

We went over to Pine Creek trail. The sign at the start of the trail said it was one mile to the waterfall. That sounded like a good destination so we headed up (as in up hill)the trail. We were in a very wooded area and it was also a canyon type area with the high mountains on each side so there was no wind there. I'm not sure who measured the distance but it seemed like a long mile to me. We made it though and it was a pretty big waterfall. I posted pictures in the album on Shutterfly.

Despite my comments about the distance of the hike, it was nice to get out and get some exercise in such a pretty area. It was a fun day.
