Thanks to Katy Poon who led eleven North Shore Hikers on this wonderful and fun hike in Golden Ears Park today. We had quite a few stops going up the East Canyon Trail due to the changing temperatures and elevation gain. We crossed the bridge to the West Canyon Trail to look down over Gold Creek where the water level was low and then our next stop was Viewpoint Beach. We turned back from Viewpoint Beach and went to the connector loop trail where seven hikers stayed just below Gold Creek Lookout and four hikers led by Bengul rambled up to the Upper falls and were glad they did. Out of the four hikers one hiker became an expert tree hugger on the way down from the upper falls. After the four hikers descended the upper falls, the group descended to the lower falls and had another long break and returned via the lower falls trail. Everyone was really social, and we all enjoyed the great company and the beautiful fall/summer day. Thank you, Katy, for all your work organizing this successful outing for all of us. We look forward to your next hike.
