Hiking with the P's

My parents were in town and I took a few days off from work. We drove up the shore to do some hiking on the Superior Hiking Trail. We did a six mile out and back route from Castle Danger to Mike's Rock.


My Mom and Dad at 76 and 74 years old, respectively, are hiking machines. They knocked off 6 miles of rugged trail like it was a walk in the park.


Yellows were still on the trees near the lake, but the leaves were mostly off the trees when you got away from the lake.


Blue blazes on these trees were some of the very first blazes Susan and I painted on our two year project back in 2006-2007. Most of them have held up surprisingly well.


This hardwood section would have been amazing with fall colors about 6 days ago.
