Derek and I did a Memorial Day hike that wound up going well beyond our original plan.

We went up the Change Creek Trail to Hall Point and went to Hall Point.  On the way down we found a trail we had been looking for that goes straight up to J’s Landing.

From J’s Landing we went up and up and finally met up with the service road just below Mid Mother Mountain.  We went south on that road, then east, then north (that is, we hiked all around the Hall Creek Ravine) and finally came out by the top of the Zig Zag Trail.

We decided to go up to Truck Summit.  There was snow along the way:

We did a little detour to an unnamed view point which I herewith dub FinCam View Point;

Plenty of great things to see, like a little waterfall:

Almost 4K elevation gain, 10.5 miles, a great, bushwhacking hike.  Here is the track:
