An Adventure In Hiking

On Mother's Day,which is always on a Sunday,became alife and deathsituation for me,two of my daughters,and one of my grandchildren.Sunday is the day my second oldest daughter,her son,and I go to a differentSouthern California Trailsto go hiking.This time my youngest daughter decided she would accompany us.Looking on theAll Trails website,we decided to try theTenaja Falls Trail. It has everything you want.Kid Friendly,has aRiver,beautiful
Views,a
Waterfall,andWildlife. The website states;"Tenaja Falls Trail is a 4.5 mile lightly trafficked out and back trail located near Lake Elsinore, CA that features a waterfall and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking and walking and is accessible year-round." It also states that the elevation is:"Up & Down 416 feet." It is very pretty,very rugged,very up & down.Only saw one rattlesnake,no mountain lions,but I really didn't comprehend
"Out & Back"portion of the description!It is 4.5 miles in,4.5 miles out,on the same rugged mountainous trail.You would be surprised how far 416 feet is when you have to climb itup & downseven or eight times!

“Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity” - John Muir - That is my story and I am sticking to it!
