I went with Lori and Jeanette to explore the BLM Wildwood Recreation Site. Fall was in the air with a cool, light rain at the start of out walk. We started on the Cascade Streamwatch Trail and followed it to the Underwater Viewing Windows. We then switched onto the Trail to Salmon River and followed it up to Old Mill Nature Trail. We did a side trip to look around the Group Picnic Area. We finished up where we started and then head across the Salmon River to Explore the Wetland Boardwalk. We finished that and then headed for lunch at the Smoky Hearth.

I went for an exploratory walk this Sunday morning between rain fronts. I have been wanting to check out the first part of this trail for several years but I had heard the homeless situation was bad. I thought I would go until I hit the first tent then turn back. Fortunately, I was able to go a couple of miles, through some beautiful area, before hitting the first tent. I also did a little side trip to see the Gnome Trail. A fun project being done by locals in the area.
