Trip Report

It turned out to be right to believe the weather forecast.<br />
Today we hiked in the North Bank Habitat Management Area, west of Glide. Starting from Comstock trailhead, we crossed Jackson Creek, and then via literally Soggy Bottoms Road reached Ridge trail. Our prominent lunch spot was just bit shy of 2000 ft., then we coasted down back via Middle Ridge trail and West Barn trail. Despite the hefty number of muddy trails, our 8.5 miles was a great generator of endorphins.
