Hiya Gang. Baxter here, I'm in control of the blog today while my pal Little Fox is on his trip to Canada. Update: LF has passed customs (not sure which city) but he's the Canada Postal Systems ward now.
My hike starts off along the Barlow Road along the Oregon Trail. If you took 5th grade history in Oregon you probably know about the Oregon trail and Sam Barlow (edit: that is if your human likes history like this author).
My destination is Upper Twin Lake and then to Palmateer point (my lunch spot).
Almost there!
The lake looks good. I think it's a snowmelt lake so it's kind of dry but the snowy season on Mt. Hood should start up in a few months.
I had the lake to myself. What a treat. Speaking of treats time to work my way up the trail to lunch. Mt. Hood decided to show up today at Palmateer point. Note, that hill to the right of Mt. Hood is Barlow Butte.
This picture is nice, but I think this one (with me in it) is much better.
I heard there was a rumor that we might celebrate this hike with some ice cream. Paws crossed.
Did you get any ice cream?? Enquiring minds (or inquiring minds) want to know. And what flavour? And how many scoops? And do you mix and match flavours if you get 2 scoops?
ReplyDeleteHa, scoops? You must be crazy, no it was an ice cream sandwich from the gas station. Still good, but the humans could have done better
ReplyDeleteHmmm... isn't there a sekrebeary evaluation coming up?
DeleteBaxter, Little Fox has got some serious competition for hiking guide blogger...
