Cape Horn 16 Jan 2015

A pretty decent day for mid-January.  Partly cloudy skies, mid-40s for a high.  No rain. Arrived at the trail around 10a and hiked the 7-ish miles for 4 lovely hours.  Only the birds for company!  This is a pretty hike but the trail is very new and you can tell because of the disturbed ground.  But someday it will all grow in and look every bit as wild as the other trails in the gorge.

a bit foggy early on
