Siouxon Trail

Jason join Janel, Pablo, and I today for his first hike ever at the Siouxon Trail south of Mt. St. Helens. This was a nice trail along a creek and a few waterfalls. There are no views of St. Helens, but this was okay as it was a rainy day. The waterfalls were not particularly amazing, but it was a nice hike anyway. We were unable to visit one of the larger waterfalls, as it is necessary to cross the river and it was still a bit too early in the season to make the crossing. We probably could have made it, but I don't think it would have been worth the effort. Below is one of the larger waterfalls that we saw towards the end of the hike. Jason and I scrambled across some slippery rocks to get to the view shown below.
