Spring training #4: Ruckel Ridge/Creek loop

Our team of six (Renee, me, Shannon, Nate, Frank And Kellie) polished off one of the Columbia Gorge's monster hikes yesterday . . . the infamous Ruckel Ridge / Creek loop.  9 miles, 3800' gain, team time a bit over 7 hours, why hurry on this glorious May 1 day?   Wow, what a display of spring wildflowers today!
