Big Devil Stairs hike

 

I finally hiked Big Devil Stairs for 10 miles with 2200 feet elevation gain, after a few weeks of snow or bad weather. I usually take longer hikes, Bui there weren’t other options and I needed to get to the mountains. There were so much blowdown tree branches on the trails to add on oir workouts, adter last week high winds. It was 30f (-1c), yet 20f (-7c) with windchills, so I wore thick pants.

This was also my first hike after the National Park Services got staff cut. The Skyline Drive was close today on Holiday day, to make taxpayers feel the pain?!

Anyway, I got my 20 hike/run miles last week.
