Sheep Canyon Loop

August 28, 2001

        Another gorgeous day, not as hot as it might have been, made this a great hike, even though the flowers were a bit past their prime.  We enjoyed salmonberries, thimbleberries, and huckleberries, too.

        Thanks to Sharon and Doug Hawley who led the Friends of Tryon Creek State Park Daytrippers today.
 
I have hiked this trail a dozen times or more, and only once were the flowers at their peak.  After all, if one hikes regularly, most of the hikes will be when the flowers are not at their best. Last year I was lucky!  CLICK HERE to see some of last year's pictures.
