Tiger Mtn Trail - South. 4 miles RT. Ele Gain 600

If I knew we’d have 10 people going, I probably would have picked a different trail.   When I peeked out the window this morning and saw the rain, I naturally anticipated getting the text messages “not going”   Believe it or not, only 2 people bailed!   Once we got to the picture perfect waterfall, I questioned if we were on the right trail.  I tend to think of waterfalls having some height to them.  Perhaps we missed something?   The   trail itself was muddy in most places.  Got covered in it.  With that said, it was perfect.   Elevation gain was gentle and I got to spend the day with Michelle!  30 years of friendship - it’s easy to pick up where you left off.   She brought her husband and my favorite part, her two dogs.  Normally only walking Banda (who is blind), it was strange to be hiking with dogs who are sighted.  (You didn’t have to keep an eye out for obstacles)  4 miles felt great and right now ………. for the first time in a long time,  I’m not scared about how I’m going to feel tomorrow.  Yay
