Cherry and I went out in a gray day to hike the hardest and the penultimate of the DEEP 2019 Sky’s the Limit Challenge sites. It was challenging on the way up, and daunting on the way down, as a slow drizzle moistened all the leaves and rocks.
We totally earned our yummy lunch at The Villager in Kent. Corn Chicken chowder, a Rueben and a chicken Philly steak with fries… yum!

Sounds like this hike was quite a challenge. Thumbs-up for going in spite of the rain.
Thanks, it was definitely the most challenging this year… however, we’ll see how the last one goes…
