Last night it was 26 degrees on the hike. We went out Cascade Lake Hwy and hiked near Widgi Creek a few miles. I couldn’t believe just how fast my Dutch Bros coffee turned to ice, but I stayed nice and warm! I definitely loved the hike, and I absolutely want to do it again sometime soon. The only creepy thing was seeing glowing eyes in the perimeter of my view now and again. Luckily the flashlight glow was only catching the eyes of raccoons!

In fact, it’s postponed until June 2009. I was one weekend too late in doing this. We went up today and the entire side and back of the waterfall are PURE ICE. There’s snow everywhere now too. It’s hard to believe how warm it was up there just one week ago. Anyhow, so now that it’s snowed and iced over up there, I’d expect it to stay that way and get worse. Melt off probably won’t be done until June. Bummer! That’s okay, I have plenty of other things I can do in the meantime. In fact, as soon as I’m done typing I’m off for an after-dark hike!
I just wrote this big huge entry, and then something happened to it. Don’t you just love it when that happens?! Ugh. Anyway, the short of it is that yesterday I saw a few people duck behind a waterfall at Tumalo Falls via a path I thought was closed. You better believe that will be me next. I just need to grab a friend or two and go. We’ll need someone to take the picture after all! This is the other people just before disappearing behind the fall. Next time the picture will be of me!
