Martha Falls Redux

Martha Falls

The trail from Louise Lake to Martha Falls was fairly uneventful.   The first leg between the lake and the Stevens Canyon Road crossing was fairly open with fairly frequent sneak peeks at the mountain.  The Trail between the road crossing (4500 ft) and the Falls was more heavily forested with little underbrush.

Unlike my first visit, I was accompanied this time by my lovely bride.  We met a man and his son trekking around the mountain and had a little chat.  He was about my age and his son was soon to graduate from college.  He had always dreamed about making the hike around the mountain and finally figured it was the right time.

Needless to say, his son was leading the way up the hill. 

The happy couple
