Boulder River Trail

Sunday May 3, 2009 my brother Aaron, Elizabeth and I went for an easy to moderate hike of 9 miles round trip along the Boulder River Trail in the Boulder River Wilderness within the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest. The trail had a mild elevation gain with the mild up and down terrain typical of river valley hiking. There was a couple views of waterfalls along the way, a couple views of the mountains, a lot of views of the river and of course tons of forest views.
