Rain, Rain, Go Away

April was a record-breaking month in Portland. It rained 26 days out of 30. One of the 4 days that were without rain, Rusty and I went hiked Coyote Wall in the Gorge. Here is the picture from the base of the trail.


Here is Rusty on the way up. I tried to get Mt. Hood in the picture with him, but it didn't quite work out.


It was an exposed trail and I ended up with a farmer tan from my t-shirt, which I am sure has since faded. Here is a view from atop the wall.


It was a little early in the hiking season for a strenuous hike. There may have been a few tears along the way, but it is always worth it in the end.
