First Hike of the Season

Note: this is NOT the summit.

We convinced the boys to go on a hike yesterday. The weather was perfect for hiking. We chose Little Si (near North Bend) since we've never been on that trail before. It is rated as a moderate hike. I found it pretty challenging since I've gotten out of shape.  There was plenty of shade on the trail.

The road we walked along to the trailhead.

We didn't make it to the summit. We were OK with that. My oldest son A could have made it a lot farther. We hiked for 90 minutes before turning around to go back. We considered it a training hike. My husband J wants to work up to a more challenging hike. I'll stick with the "moderate" hikes, thank you!

We had heard that this hike was super popular so we wondered if the trail would be crowded. Yes, we saw plenty of people but it was not crowded. This was at 2:30 pm on a Sunday afternoon. Parking was tricky. The actual lot is small but we found parking not too far away.

We also enjoyed watching some rock climbers that we saw along the way.
