Last week, with a twist

Today's trail run was pretty much a repeat of last week's run South Larrabee tour, except in reverse. We started at the Lost lake parking lot instead of the Hiline road and ran the interurban trail to Fragrance lake trail.

 We then ran up the trail & once around the lake. Instead of running up the road to Gates Overlook, we ran on the Fragrance lake road to the Lost Lake trail.


Then up the Lost lake trail to Burnout point. If you look at last weeks post, you'll see that we had virtually no views. Today we had better luck.


Some of the other differences from last week's run were: we ran on to the top of the road till it dead ended. Then we ran down the long hill (road) that we ran up last week. If we saw a fun little trail off to the side we took it, hoping that our distance would match last week's.
One of our detours was this lovely old road, we ran on it until we came to a gate & keep out sign.

The photo below shows the same spot I took a picture last week, quite a bit higher clouds.

Then when we got to the fork in the road back to the Lost lake parking we took a right instead and headed up the road back to Fragrance lake. We didn't run around the lake this time, instead we ran down the trail - in and out to the overlook.
Then down to the interurban and to the Lost lake parking lot.
Fun day on the trails today, I was a wee bit tired when we finished. As usual my husband put together a great and challenging route for us to train on.

Endomondo stats:
total miles - 14
minimum altitude - 114 feet
maximum altitude - 1810 feet
total ascent - 2825 feet

*hope you didn't get too lost trying to follow my route info. ;-)
