Prairie Mtn - W.Ridge Loop Trail hike on 16-Aug-2026

Our group headed off at about 10 am under a moderate smoke haze and no wind. Being a Sunday, the climb to the summit was fairly busy but we saw just one person on the hike out along Prairie Creek. Our guest dog, Nanu, did a fine job of keeping the group together and ensuring there were no stragglers. Thanks to Nancy, Jeannette, Jo, Krzysztof for joining me for a very enjoyable day John c/s
