Good Monday morning to you:)
I hope your weekend was a good one!
Yesterday Mr. SSH had an idea that we should climb Saddle Mountain.
It is about twenty minutes from Seaside Oregon.
It is listed as a moderate hike....
The girls and I would say it should be listed as a challenging hike.
So....
sit back and relax as I take you on the hike:)
Oh, did I mention before I am deathly afraid of heights?
From the start it was straight up.
The scenery was amazing:)
There were so many different wild flowers:)
I LOVE them!
This was the view before we even hit
!
There were so many shades of green.
We are still climbing.
We didn't realize until this point in our hike
that Sammy is also afraid of heights.
Still climbing.
Only 1 1/2 miles to go.
Not even close to there.
Not yet.
It is beautiful.
Luckily I had my walking sticks!
The top is where we are going!
There I am:)
I am going on ahead and Mr. SSH is back with Sammy
helping her up the path.
Yes that is Mt. St. Helens and another mountain....?
Yes, that is the trail we hiked on.
We made it!
Are you exhausted yet?
Here we are!
The way down is WAY easier!
The ground cover was sooooo pretty!
We went to Seaside for dinner after our hike.
Aren't they cute?
They were holding hands on their own!
Isn't the beach spectacular?
I am super glad we went.
It was like a mini vacation:)
And all of this was photographed by Mr. SSH himself!
I hope you enjoyed our hike.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt this hike if you cannot handle two hours of straight up hill.
I only survived because I had walking sticks and four Advil in me!
Happy Monday
