Saturday the weather was fabulous! We spent the afternoon with my hilarious twin and my nephew hiking up Spencer's Butte.
We departed from the main trail which switchbacks pleasantly up the butte, and took one of the steep side trails. The old growth trees were amazing.
Hikers are rewarded with a panoramic view of the city and surrounding countryside.
The Three Sisters to the east....we're still hoping to tackle the South Sister next summer.
We spared our quads and took the more gentle, main trail back down. On the way down we encountered this tree. My hilarious twin informed the kids that some people like to head for the woods to see the 'swiss trees'.
Taking advantage of the mild fall sunshine is the recipe for a wonderful day.
