Mount Stinson

HIKED ON APRIL 29, 2023

​Stinson is considered one of the easiest hikes on the 52 With a View list.  It is also one of the closest to where we live.  It made sense as a half day trip on a busy weekend as we prepare for bigger things.  As I note in the video, lots of people don't particularly like it.  It is a common compliant on multi-use trails that the hikers become a bit of an afterthought in winter.  Also, mountains like this lose a bit of their "wild" feel when they are super-accessible.  This is even more true on the famous mountains like Washington, so it isn't Stinson's fault.

That said, it was a lovely day for a walk. The leaves hadn't really even begun to appear, leaving the greens of moss and small flowering plants to distract us from the browns and grays.  I go on quite a bit in the video about skunk cabbage.  It is usually one of the first plants to appear after the snow. Finally, on a frustrating note, I lost my poles on Stinson and still haven't quite relaced them...
