| Brook crossing at the beginning of the hike. Deep enough for swimming. We stopped here on the way back to swim the dogs. |
 |
| So happy to start seeing wildflowers |
 |
| The hike feels like it ascends a lot, but no named summits. |
 |
| Looks like house remains, just before Caesar Brook |
 |
| Taking a break for a snack, and to throw sticks into Caesar Brook |
