Beautiful flowers

 View half way up Hugo Peak.

 Dense foliage--note the lack of concrete!

 Solo hike to the top of Hugo Peak

 My favorite vine maple on the trail.

Trillium 

After half a day of subbing in the special education room, I escaped to the woods of Pack Forest. I busted up the hill, reaching the peak in less than 45 minutes. I never knew how fast I could summit. because every time I hike this trail, I'm with the swim team and we always have to stop repeatedly to rest. It felt good to challenge myself. I'm finding it hard to fill my time since finishing the first year at University of Puget Sound, Doctorate of Physical Therapy program. In fact, I've been on two hikes with the dog and one solo (mentioned above.) I've watched X-Files, Supernatural, Mulan, Atlantis, and lots of episodes of House.
