Upper Latourell Falls 6/20/12

The parking area for Latourell Falls is closed until October 2012 and access is limited to the west end of the trail which intersects with the Historic Columbia River Highway west of the parking area (there is a pullout with space for a handful of cars only).  However, it appears that a fabulous new bathroom is among the improvements, so we will wait patiently.

Pileated Woodpeckers made these large holes in
this snag looking for grubs

Goat's Beard blooming next to
the stream

My new hiking partner, Deagan, goes for his first walk in the woods - he doesn't know how to pose for the camera yet!
