Desolation Trail

 
Fall has arrived.  It was a crisp and cool afternoon. Great weather for a hike.  Seems that a lot of other people were thinking the same thing.  For our second hike of the weekend we did the Desolation Trail  in Millcreek Canyon. We made it to the overlook just as the sun decided to make its appearance.  A great reward for our efforts.  It took us about an hour and a half to get to the overlook with a lot of stopping and starting with the dogs and plenty of people out on the trail.  Total time on the trail was about 3 hours. Another great day.  Home in time to watch the Green Bay Packers play the night game.
