Lewis River Falls Trail

Instead of walking 9 miles uphill to the trailhead to the falls trail, we walked back 1.75 miles to the van and drove there instead. Then we walked the trail from the campground to see all the waterfalls. The hike was gorgeous but we were really sorry we didn’t bring our swimsuits! Lots of great swimming holes on the trail!

We really had to ration our water on the return trip, so we were VERY thankful for water at the campground! And these pumps brought back memories from when I camped as a kid.

We were once again thankful for the fact that we made camp less than 2 miles from the van! And for a cold river for swimming before supper…
