Scott Mountain and Loop 17 October 2014

Rain greeted us this morning, but the weather map showed it was NOT raining at our planned destination, Scott Mountain in the Three Sisters area.  We were able to reach the top of Scott and complete half the hike before it began to sprinkle.  It was beautiful!  Love the clouds and new snow on the mountains.  We were blessed to have sun on the little lakes and a view of the mountains.  10 miles, 1300 ft gain
