Peters Canyon - July 1 hike

We did a hard hilly loop at Peters Canyon today with some new hiking friends and a new dog friend for Nutmeg!  We hiked 6 miles including a  loop around the reservoir. We started early, but it was still hot and sunny by the time we reached the hilly section of the trail.

Sarah and her mom Diana joined us for the first time and livened up the hike!

Fish Creek Falls - April 28 Hike

We did a wonderful hike to Fish Creek Falls today. It is only open certain Saturdays during the spring and summer so it tends to be crowded.  We started early, but happened to arrive right before the OC Hiking Group and followed them in.  It's a short hike with a rewarding view at the falls.

Switzer Falls Hike - May 20

Our hike today was an amazing hike filled with stream crossings and waterfalls..We took Nutmeg and Buddy, but had to carry Buddy at the end! It was about 5 miles, but we turned around before reaching the campground at the end of the trail. It was mostly shaded, but there was a hot section once we climbed out of the canyon on our return.
