Kurt's Hikes: Heughs Canyon

Heughs Canyon

On the estimated peak day of snowmelt run-off, we hiked up Heughs Canyon to the waterfall. The falls gushed with as much Mt. Olympus spring water as I've ever seen. Although the weather and wildflowers were letdowns, every hike is an adventure, and it isn't a "real" hike unless someone gets hurt! See rest of photos here.
