Obstacles - #Hiking and Walking in the Pacific Northwest - #SaturdaySnapshots

I've been posting photos of the beautiful surroundings I've encountered in my walks and hikes with the Auburn Senior Activity Center group. To get to the awesome views, however, we often have to overcome obstacles.  (Click on photos for a closer look.)


Balance is important.
The logjam in the stream under this bridge 
is the biggest one I've ever seen.
Stepping carefully over  rocks. No one wants to
turn an ankle out in the boonies. Trekking poles help.
It takes stamina to reach this beautiful spot. Sometimes we share the paths with
bicycles and horses It's not all sunshine and blue skies! We have to watch out for wildlife too! The results are worth the effort.
