Saturday Hike #2
After our (my) hike up Beacon Rock, we headed home for lunch. We had told the girls earlier in the week that we could go swimming at the community college pool on Saturday. So we put on our suits and headed off to the pool, only to discover that it was closed for a swim meet! Since the sun was still shining, we returned home, took our swim suits off and put our hiking clothes back on. We headed back to the Columbia River Gorge and set off on the closest hike...Angel's Rest. It is a rather popular hike and was rather crowded. We pressed on (2.5 miles to the top) and were treated with great views. We didn't get to hang around or rest much on top, as we were running out of daylight and wanted to get to the car before dark.
