Jer fell asleep shortly into the hike and napped while riding on my back for about an hour or and hour and half. A little while after he woke up we were a quarter to half mile away from the car so he walked that last bit. It was really fun and nice just to get out with and take a walk. The whole thing took about 2 hours and 20 minutes at our very leisurely pace (which became even more leisurely when the Jer man started walking) and several breaks. I hope to return and do this hike in the winter or early spring when the streams will be flowing. This time there was only one spot that had a little still water from the rains a couple weeks ago.
The one downside was that since the hike is relatively short, and a lot of it parallels the road, you can hear road noise for a good portion of the hike (maybe one third or so). However, for a hike about a ten mile drive from home, with the kids and the dog, it was great - got some fun pictures and video. Enjoy!!
