Nice view from the 1509 road on the way to the trailhead Interesting Rock formation on 1509 road on the way to the trailhead Found the milepost marker near the beginning of the trail - 4 miles from what? Tidbits Mountain Trail goes thru beautiful old growth Trail junction at the saddle Gold Hill trail continues all the way down to road 1509 Site of an old Forest Service Shelter A day full of big views Collapsed stairs that led up to old lookout Probably more of the collapsed stairs Big views from the old lookout The site of the old lookout - it was on the top of a rock! There was a geocache up on top the look down to the end of the trail You can see the trail on the rocks below These purple flowers are beginning to bloom - Crocus? I had to get a photo of this tree - it fell in such a perfect spot - right between two other trees. On the way home we passed this covered bridge and decided to check it out.
