Training Hike - Poo Poo Point

The day before Mother's Day we hiked up to a popular paragliding spot on Tiger Mountain.  Affectionately known as Poo Poo Point, we decided to go on a beautiful day in the spring.  The temperature was in the low 70's and the sky was clear.

The hike consisted of 3 miles straight up (1,800 feet) a slight descent, then level to the point.  After a rest watching people flying away, we went back down the way we came. 

On the day we were there, a local company was doing tandem rides.  One toddler was not very happy her mother was flying away, for she was crying the whole time Mom was getting ready to take off.  Didn't phase the mother, though, for as she left the ground, she waved and said "Happy Mother's Day".
