Thurs, July 9th, CUNNINGHAM GULCH, HIGHLAND MARY

Highland Mary is my favorite trail!  It is still raining here, but we went ahead and took a trail in the rain.  Also quite cold today.

I love Highland Mary because it has it all:  waterfalls, water-crossings, wild flowers, wild life, rugged rock outcroppings & lush green.  If you're up to a strenuous hike, I am told there is a beautiful mountain lake on the other side.  Will try to verify that some day.

Us going thru another creek:


 We crossed this one also:


 


This is what happens to the grass when a big rock rolls down:
 Long waterfall:
Headed back to town:
 Cloud-covered mountain:
Town was BUSY tonight! 
 All the runners and support teams are here for the big race that starts at 6:00 a.m. in the morning.  
We had to go to 4 restaurants before we found one that could accommodate us. 
 Setting up for the race:
