Today's hike, like last week's Hovander Farm hike began with a little fog.
19 of us met at Squires lake to begin our hike, some met at the Senior center & carpooled to our destination and some drove to the trailhead on their own.
but unlike last week's hike it was burning off rapidly.
I managed to get a picture of our fearless leader Pat as he paused to take a photo
of Mt. Baker to the left of Anderson mtn.
Our lunch view, including the scenic I-5 corridor ;-)
Gus, Owen, Frank, Penny and Jean at their lunchtime perch!
Boy did the sun ever feel good.
I took the two pictures below to show the lake at the beginning of the hike compared to the end of the hike, Just a bit of early morning fog and a hazy reflection, and then a few hours later with a crystal clear reflection. Rather pretty don't you think.
When I left my home this morning it was 27 degrees, and by the time we returned to the cars it had warmed up to a balmy 50 degrees!!
