Hiking in Jay Cooke Park Yesterday







Jewels and I got ambitious yesterday.  The water was running high on the St Louis River and it was such a nice day (+90F) so we decided to chew off a long hike (for us) at Jay Park.

Of course we got started in the heat of the day around noon and the trail was fairly demanding considering it's rated as a moderate trek.  A lot of low wet spots, a couple of places where the trail collapsed, and so very hot.  Total trek was about 6 miles and we were both dragging our butts when we finally arrived back at the parking lot almost 4 hours later.

But it was fun and the scenery magnificent and the company was great.

Life is Good!
