Auburn Game Farm Hike via Iverson Railroad Trail

Today four of us traveled up to East Tiger Mountain to hike the Iverson Railroad Trail.  Unfortunately, it was closed for the season, which was both unexpected & lame.  So, we decided to hike an alternate trail in the same area, the NW Timber Trail, but that, too, was closed.  We finally gave up & headed down to the Auburn Game Farm which Victoria had mentioned to us earlier this week.  This was a nice little trail along the White River, which was running quite high with the recent rains we've been having.  We got rained on a little bit while on the trail, but it didn't really start coming down until we were done, thank goodness.  It was a nice little salvage of our less than stellar hike at Tiger Mountain.

Teresa & Cirus so excited to hike at Tiger Mountain. 

At least we got one bridge photo.


Closed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cirus liked the water a lot, and almost pulled Teresa in with him!  I would have liked to see that!


One small waterfall we found.







Some wild bleeding heart.

Signs of spring!
