Boulder River

I'm absolutely loving getting out and about this month!! Yesterday I ventured out into the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.  It was a typical pacific northwest day--which means it was cloudy and wet!  But I wasn't the only one crazy enough to go hiking in the rain.  I passed a bunch of people on this trail which was just gorgeous. 


There were two waterfalls along this trail which was nice. No big finish at the end but there was a big boulder next to the river that I sat and had lunch on while waiting for the rain and hail to let up. 


The trail had a lot of beautiful wildlowers and lots of mushrooms too.  I also passed a lot of skunk cabbage which is hardly surprising given how muddy and marshy it was in some places.
