Not Just Trees and Rivers - #Hiking - #SaturdaySnapshots

Although much of the joy of hiking comes from walking among beautiful trees and along pristine rivers, I've also encountered interesting man-made delights along the way. Here are photos of a few of them.

  4. I never know what we're going to encounter on a hike. They're an interesting and fun way to get exercise and see areas I'd never venture to otherwise.

  5. I loved these pictures of "oddities." Your posts are much appreciated since I don't get out to see such things. The forest ones remind me of the hills and mountains around my hometown of Darrington.
