I hiked the Change Creek Trail to J’s Landing today, 4.29 miles, but the Change Creek Trail up to Hall Point is super-steep (about 1,350 feet in a mile) so it is a great workout.
It was cloudy and slightly cool, perfect weather for a steep hike. Not much sweating on the way up.
I do always like to see the little Hall Creek waterfall, way back in the Watershed:
There is a nice view north towards Mt. Si:
And on the way down I stopped to groove on being in the back country, staring up at Change Peak. Alone, quiet, the horrible troubles of the world on hold for me:

A fun outing, and I will be getting out 3 times a week through the summer (barring injury).
