Back to the Lake

in Beach Hiking Waterfall on June 16, 2015 June 16, 2015

Our first hike of summer 2015! 🙂 We wanted to go for a little hike on our Monday off of work and ended up down at Lake Cushman to hike the river trail. Our original plan was to do the Wagon Wheel Lake hike, but it’s steep and I just wasn’t feeling it… I like the river trail. It’s relaxing. We even got some ice cream on the way back home.

The "new" bridge — The “new” bridge

moody bridge

Nice lines!

There was no one else here so I could play with the bridge a little bit.

Trail through the boulders

Optional detour over a fallen tree

Another small bridge

Interesting root ball

Curves

Striped rock

The beach

boulders in the river

Look at that clear water! I really wanted to jump in.

Rapids

Tree with backlighting

Shadows on the trail

Rainforest

Dapples

Love the shapes made by fallen trees

There is so much moss here.

I even had fun playing with the harsh noon overhead lighting.

Pretty good end to the weekend!
