Paul and Rose asked us to join them on an adventure; hiking the infamous West Coast Trail. Overall we had a great time, Paul and Rose made fabulous companions on this trip. Even though Paul rolled is ankle on the 2nd (or 3rd?) day, and Rose developed a nasty blister on the 2nd, there were no complaints. What a tough pair!
Day 1, orientation at 2, we were hiking by 3/3:30ish and it was pouring rain. Our rain gear did not suffice, as we were soked by the time we got to Michigan Creek campsite. We were wet, cold and our spirits were low, but by next morning the weather started to clear up and we had fabulous weather for the remaining 5 days.

With the fresh rainfall the roots, ladders and bridgeways were slippery. It took me a while to get over the fear of the ladders (not that I am completely over them, but I improved considerably after having to climb up and down so many of them). The others scrambled up these like no big deal.

I don't think Elo and I are made for roughing it in nasty weather; but if we do this trip again a couple of tarps and a couple more water proof sacks will be in the pack. If you don't have a vestibule under your rain fly (we didn't), then an extra tarp is a must as you really don't want that wet and smelly pack in the tent with you while you sleep (just ask how we know!)

The beach walks were incredible, and the views on the south half were incredible. Whale watching every day (Tail!) was spectacular, not to mention the sea lions and a few quick peaks at sea otters and a bald eagle or two.
A huge thanks to Paul and Rose for asking us to join them on this trip; what a great experience and such a good time!
