Just a heads up that this Thursday's 10am hike will be to Cougar Mtn. The trail was marked and lopped on Aug 22nd. Weather looks in our favor. Proper footwear and water are a must, a snack and hiking poles are recommended. This hike is not long ( between 2.5-3km ) but its strenuous in a few areas and you may have to use your hands for balance. Its a similar hike to Bolger Mtn or Mt Belvedere. Looking at a 45 min drive up so carpooling is a good idea. Hope to see you Thurs at the bank. Here is a pic of the summit from down on hwy 546 beside the Little White river, and no we won't be scrambling up the rock face, lol.... we should return to the bank between 2-3pm
