Taking advantage of a sunny day to get up into the southern Cascades of Washington. With the snow gone, I hiked to the site of the old fire lookout up on Three Corner Rock. The last time – many moons ago – I was up here was with my first little corgi, Toffee.
Because I have wanted to hike in this area of the Boundary Trail for years now. The whole 53 miles of the Boundary Trail cover a lot of interesting country. Now, I like to cherry pick trails with a light daypack, so I picked what looked to be the most interesting section between Badger Peak and Craggy Peak, the gems of the Boundary. A long drive up the Lewis River highway from I-5 at Woodland and around the east side of Mt St Helens started things off (doesn’t Forest Highway 25 seem to be getting worse every year?). I was on the trail a little after 9am.
