Trip Report

Sunshine and blue skies provided a lovely setting for us to explore these two bark chip running trails in South Eugene. The contrast with our recent cool rainy weather was a bit of a shock--we chatted about the need to transition our backpack contents from winter to spring! We observed buttercups in bloom with other flowers almost ready: Camas, Cow Parsnip, Checker Mallow and more.
