Ten eager hikers challenged the accuracy of the weather forecast and set out to pay a visit to McCarthy Falls. The road was a welcome opportunity to walk and chat in groups and the swampy approach to the falls was nothing to fret about. Our lunch with a view from below the falls was fabulous. Kevin scouted out a new view of the falls in the name of capturing the moment in pictures - it will be worth checking out on our next visit. We do have to credit TWN with some level of accuracy as rain did spit at us briefly in the allotted time frame, it was definitely < 1 mm, and the sun did make an appearance occasionally on the return trek. The proof of wildlife highlight of the hike were the truly massive moose tracks we saw on the road - check out the photo with my hiking pole beside it. That section of the handle is 9" to the back of the dew claw marks (which I have never seen in a moose track before)!! That's one big moose!
