Nov 18th - Golden Gate Canyon

A casual jaunt to Golden Gate Canyon state park was had on November 18th.

Golden Gate Canyon is a favorite place for shoulder season hikes. Gentle terrain, open meadows, nice views.

Nothing too dramatic, just a pleasant way to spend a day.

We did a modified version of the Mountain Lion loop. The loop, besides taking in some nice views off of Windy Peak, also passes by an old homestead. Part of this loop also goes by an Appalachian Trail-style lean-to. If there were white blazes, I'd feel like I was back East!

A nice and pleasant day for a stroll.
