A little bit of rain did not deter this bunch of hardy hikers
A five mile hike along Trapper Creek
Them lunch in a Mineral Springs Cabin
--- The weather didn't cooperate,
but, the Hike was wonderful nevertheless ---



The group arrives and Mel greets us at the trailhead.






The trail was wonderful

We had a very civilized lunch spot, thanks to the "Civilian Conservation Corps" and Stan who was our gracious host for lunch. We even celebrated the birthday of one of the hikers.
