Hiking at Catherine Creek

We spent the afternoon hiking Catherine Creek in the Columbia Gorge. http://gorgefriends.org/display.php?modin=51&uid=4845 - The views of the gorge are amazing.

I do have to admit that the cliff's and the wind made me quite nervous; I made the girls hold our hands for those passages.  Look at our great hiker Mia Rose hiking in the meadow followed by Ron...


In our group were six kids - including our two - and I honestly was amazed how well everyone did.  Once we reached the top we took a little break for water, fruit, salami - yes, milk free :), and nuts. Recharged we made our way back....
Look at this view...

I remember hiking there when I was younger. My dad has very long legs (and is 6'3) and never understood why I couldn't hike as fast :) The views were always great! All your posts always make me miss living in the NW :)
