Sunday Hike At Perry Creek


This hike was profiled in this months Washington Trails  magazine as a pretty fall hike. The leaves were just beginning to turn and it is sad to report that my camera didn't capture the beauty of this hike. I have to find an alternate camera for cloudy days.




On our way up, Bogie found a few nice watering holes. It turned out that I didn't need to bring as much water as we did but better safe than sorry!




Our first view point came right before the meadow. There was an old campfire there from someone's overnight stay. I'm not too shy to say I'm a little bit jealous of those folks, waking up in the morning to this view!


Descending down into the meadow, you can see bogie just beginning to roll into the sweet meadow grass.






We enjoyed a quick lunch but it was very chilly on top and we didn't prepare for that, so back down again for the alternate view of the trail!



Here you can see that our legs were getting a little "punchy" on the way back down through some of the rocky parts.


How sweet, bogie is offering to drive us home, decided to let him sleep in the back seat instead.
