Description:

We will use a car shuttle to facilitate the hike of the Ridgeline Trail from Blanton to Spring trailhead. A great way to hike the entire Ridgeline trail and to see the storm damage and wildflowers. A steady pace with up and downs. Please check if you can drive. UPDATE: Kay and I will leave our cars at Spring trailhead at 8:00 and John J will drive us to Amazon. He will also drive to Blanton so we probably only need only one other driver.

Trip Report

A car shuttle made it possible to hike from the Blanton Trailhead to the Spring Trailhead stepping over the unfortunate earthworms and squishing through some rmuddy spots. None of this nor the steady rain stopped us from enjoying the wildflowers and our conversation. Randy heard and spotted a barred owl on a tree branch for all of us to view.
