Hello Hikers!
Perfect morning to wander around the Virgil Creek dam flood project, mid-60s, great breeze — after a while the sky filled with gorgeous puffy clouds and it got even lovelier.
Lourdes, who comes from Barcelona, said the scenery looked like the Spanish countryside.
I’d just been reading about the Palouse grasslands area in Idaho and I thought this was the next best thing, in case I never get to the real thing.
Two of the midweek hikers who were out here with us in May and said they’d found the walk somewhat boring then changed their minds and said it was really nice this time — so we’ll put this one into the hike rotation.
The group got a bit scattered and spread out but the walk had a loose Fellini quality to it at times thanks to the terrain and everything was cool.
