I never thought I would backpack to the same place twice. There are so many awesome places in the NW to go, why go to the same place twice. We had taken this trip (The Siouxan Trail) a few years ago, but Will was out with a torn meniscus. I told him about this perfect place in the woods and he finally convinced me to revisit it. It was just like before…
We started the hike in drizzle turning to downpour which reminded me of our Olympic National Forest Trip. I still can’t get over a forest floor of pure ferns and down trees. It is amazing how lush and clean it feels. We really repeated this trip almost identical to before. We stayed in the same place, we played in the same water, and we marveled at how beautiful the water falls were. The only difference was we made it to the 5.5 mile ‘Y’ in the trail sat and ate lunch and came back.
