VERY pretty trails, especially Bickford Slides Loop and Rattlesnake Pool - an outstanding waterfall and pool area!!!! Quite magical! Excellent views in all directions now that the leaves are gone! Thanks Eric for an awesome hike - almost all new trails for me!!!! We actually went up Blueberry Mtn twice - very neat each time! |
