Karen and I aren’t hiking people. You’d think that being exposed to the panaramic view of the evergreens here in the Northwest would have transform us, but nope. Last week, our small group forced us all into the jungle in the form of a tent-camping trip to Wallace Falls, where Erick insisted that the hiking trail is super easy.
Jun brought an oversized 12 men tent partitioned into two sleeping quarters and a common area. As small group tradition, we had to play a few games of Bang before we hit the sacks…
I must say that this is one interesting camp ground. There were loud popping noises in the parking lot (popcorn machine? wild animals?), and the unmistakable music of the passing train serenaded us through the night.
In the morning, we identified the source of the popping noise…
On the way toward the trail to the Upper Falls, Karen and I discovered this sign…
Hmm, that black windy diamond didn’t seem to suggest an easy trail…
Definitely not an easy trail. After suffering immense dehydration, we finally reached the destination.
Where we were greeted by a stealthy thief…
A chipmunk. It’s the first time I’ve seen one! I guess that made the trip all worth it. 🙂
