Our Young Women went a pre-camp five mile hike the day after school got out, and since I'm going to Girls' Camp this year (as a cabin mom) I decided to join them. I'd never heard of Green Mountain before this; I'm so glad I know about it now! It's a great hike, not too hard (well, not too hard for me...there was quite a bit of complaining from the younger girls, but they all survived), and supposedly there is a great view of Seattle, the Olympics, and Mt. Rainier at the top. I say supposedly because when we go to the top, we couldn't see much. It was like being up in a cloud, very misty and damp. That just means that we'll have to do it again so we can see the view for ourselves!
They'll complain now but will cherish those memories. I'll never forget the hikes to Lena Lake in preparation for camp. Good memories :)
