Trip Report

7 lovely ladies enjoyed a 10.5 mile hike along Brice Creek, Upper Trestle Falls trail loop and Lower Trestle Falls. The day started at Cedar Creek Trail head. The enchanting forest felt cooler than the sunny openings. The water flow was low, yet still pleasant to experience. A dip in Brice Creek was refreshing! A little history regarding the gold mining era of the late 1800s and early 1900s caused for wonder about life over 100 years ago. Lund Park was the half way stop for the 2 day trip from Cottage Grove to Bohemia Mountain. Perhaps a future trip to the mining district is in order. Charla is returning to Obsidians after a long absence. Welcome Charla and Mary!
