Trail, as it leads into Soggy Bottom

Stormy clouds swirl in the sky

View from the creek valleys to the high ridges

I finally slipped and took a spill here

A hole in the sky gives us a blue spot of hope

Scott Mountain was a prominent feature on the skyline

The sun tries and fails to break through

A cattail, ready to send its seeds out with the next wind

Panoramana of the rained-on North Umpqua valley

Rain occluded view

A red currant bush pinks up the trail

Tioga Bridge side view

Fantastic view of Whistlers Bend on the North Umpqua

Tree art

The views were a constant on this hike

View down to the eastern trailhead

Rain cometh

View to the high ridge we would eventually attain

View back to Middle Ridge

A great view of the river valley from the trail

The North Umpqua River flows in the valley below
