Crane Mountain: first hike

Today Neuro and I climbed Crane Mountain. The mountain is 1700 feet high at the summit, and despite the rough climb the view was breathtaking.

Rocky trail:



Pretty steep climb:



Midway up the mountain we stopped to take some photos:



This one really shows the perspective:



And eventually we DID reach the summit:



There were some little waterfalls along the way:



The weather was perfect, and the batteries in our cameras wore out before we did... which is why I am not sharing any photos of the loons we saw on the way home. :)
