Arthur's Rock
Katherine and I went up to Lory State Park for a morning hike to Arthur's Rock. Neither of us had hiked it before so we thought we'd give it a try!
Needles
Green Day
Everything was so green on our hike.
At the Top
We took several selfies at the top of Arthur's Rock. I brought a travel tripod with me and was able to set it up at the top.
I Made It!
Katherine is celebrating making it up to the top.
Victory
We were so happy when we made it to the top! It wasn't that long of a hike but it was a pretty large elevation gain in such a short distance.
Above the Clouds
Green Mountains
The mountains behind Lory State Park were really green! I was expecting most of the trees to be burned from the fires a few years back.
White Wild Flowers
There was a patch of white wild flowers and this random bunch of yellow flowers. I thought it was a little weird!
Afternoon Hike
After our hike up Arthur's Rock we had a picnic and then went on this very short "hike". It was 0.1 miles long and led us to a waterfall.
White Blossoms
I'm not sure what kind of tree this is, but I don't think I've ever found flowers on a tree like this before. They were so perfectly white!
Rock Wall
At the end of the trail to the waterfall there were tall rock walls on all sides of us (except the way we came in obviously).
Wet Feet
Katherine decided to dip her feet in the water. Since this is water coming from snow melt in the mountains it was really cols, even though it was a pretty warm day outside!
