| no partners | | Nick, Bob, and I hiked the Massacre Falls Loop on Easter Sunday.
With help of the official GPS track for this loop, route finding was straightforward. Without it, I think it would have been pretty hard. Even with the GPS, I didn't always pay as close attention as I ought to have, overshooting several turns.
catclaw and other pokey brush turned out to be less of a problem than I expected. I had dressed for it though, wearing long pants and a long sleeved shirt. My choice of footwear was less than ideal for the grass as I spent a few hours picking grass seeds out of my socks and shoes when I returned.
The area around the fall was damp, but the waterfall wasn't flowing.
We still saw a lot of wildflowers and an awful lot of dried grass which could soon be a fire hazard if it isn't already.
Nick pronounced this hike a "Curate's Egg", by which he means, "Good, in parts." With that I agree. |
