Glad you didn't permanently injure yourself. Also, I giggled thinking about summer hiking around my ski area.

It is a good thing your friends were with you this trip to help you out after your fall. I have to remember the mud and cold water tip. I am glad you were ok. The creek crossing would spook me. Loved the photos. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day and the week ahead. <br />eileeninmdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070309645796725309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630767188230598013.post-89021549237293416282018-11-06T01:22:42.398-08:002018-11-06T01:22:42.398-08:00Good to see that the ski runs here revert to wildf...Good to see that the ski runs here revert to wildflower meadows in summer.

Your pics are great. I have a suggestion. Pack a small tube of Arnica gel in your pack and some Arnica homeopathic pills. Arnica is great for bumps, bruises, and aching muscles. I don't leave home without it!Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984171407726520584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630767188230598013.post-55397114519601924012018-11-05T16:06:16.867-08:002018-11-05T16:06:16.867-08:00Summer or winter, it looks gorgeous.Summer or winter, it looks gorgeous.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826369816985788575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630767188230598013.post-68921341714023160452018-11-05T15:26:23.454-08:002018-11-05T15:26:23.454-08:00This hike on Mt Hood reminds me of one my husband ...This hike on Mt Hood reminds me of one my husband and I took in Glacier National Park. It was also filled with wildflowers and waterfalls and beautiful mountain top views.<br /><br />The ski resorts I've seen here in Colorado in summer look fairly well without snow, but not as lush with greenery as we have been experiencing drought for a few years. Mountain biking is a favorite sport here Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5630767188230598013.post-17959079545063632882018-11-05T14:04:42.523-08:002018-11-05T14:04:42.523-08:00...even the barren, rocky spots have a beauty of t......even the barren, rocky spots have a beauty of their own.
