2018-10-19 Spruce Railroad Hike
All the hikers but one
Here’s Johnny!
The hike begins
Tim, Jim and Doreen bring up the rear
One of many mushrooms to come
The new upgraded trail is great -- note the fall colors
The mushrooms provide color and shape to forest floor
We all enjoyed the new trail
Some of the mushrooms are very colorful
In places the mushrooms carpeted the forest floor
The three girls still having fun
We hiked next to Lake Crescent
The hikers about to go into the newly reopened tunnel
We hiked out the other end of the tunnel
We all made it through
Stefanie and Deisy with two camera shy dogs
The hikers enjoying Lake Crescent
The hikers take a break
The lake was really beautiful
We made it to the turnaround spot and lunch
Sharlene our hike leader
Our dog walker Deisy
Sophie and the humans she takes for walks
Happy hikers
Tim and the tunnel they didn’t reopen
Lunch is over so we head back to the parking lot
More views of one beautiful lake
Deisy and her dog with a beautiful background
The water was so clear you could see the fish clearly
OK, the lake was worth more than a couple of pictures
Doreen heading home on the yellow leaf road
A little waterfall along the way
The last of the mushrooms
Pretty lake pictures were around every bend
Jim and Tim admire the lake
There were views of Lake Crescent all along the hike
Jim and Tim – notice the lady in the water – brrr!
We made it back through the rabbit whole and are heading home
More hikers on their way back to the parking lot
The last of the hikers to make it back to the parking lot
The drive home with the fall colors
That's all folks!
