Steve at Upper Shannon Falls:
“Either I’m out of shape, or someone added a big mound of rock, and few extra clicks to this trail. Probably more the first one… I totally underestimated this as being a short/easy hike despite hiking it before. It is more like a shorter version of the Chief trail with some nice flat bits thrown in. I had a really great group of women sign up (yup, you heard me!), but thankfully the conversation steered clear of the recent Royal Wedding which was my big fear. We took in the falls and the viewpoint, but it took us over 4 hours (moderate pace). This one reminded me of old Wanderung hikes circa 2002 for some reason and I enjoyed it.”
