After our incredibly long wet and dark spring we finally got a wonderful sunny and warm day for our hike. We had a long carpool ride from Bellingham to Baker lake for the start of our hike.
We had planned on hiking to Noisy creek today, but there was some question about where we should go since part of the area we wanted to hike had a questionable approach. As you can see there are a couple of trees resting on the bridge cables.
We decided to go to Sulphide creek, where we had a short break. Some of us couldn't decide if it was a lunch break or a snack break. I decided to take advantage of the break and ate half of my lunch, since it was still a bit early for lunch and I would undoubtedly be hungry a little later.

The Hidden creek bridge made for a scenic area to take pictures and eat the rest of my lunch.
