Some lovely day hikes

These photos are some highlights from several different day hikes in May. We had a lot less snow this past winter which opened up the backcountry earlier than usual and I'm okay with a longer hiking season! 

This photo was taken June 3rd. All north facing slopes hang onto winter snow the longest.

Forage

I absolutely love hunting for morel mushrooms every spring! Spring came early this year and I've found about 5 lbs of these ugly tasty little things. Since they are so mild in flavor I have been putting them in everything we eat! Except for morning our morning smoothies. Haha!
