The weather is too good to pass up (sunny 76 degrees). So even we had a fellowship picnic on Saturday, many of us still wanted to go hiking. We hiked the Living Room trail near the U campus. It was a shorter hike compared to the Twin Peaks hike last Sunday (2.5 miles vs 4.0 miles), but because of the similar elevation gain, this hike requires much more strength. There were wild flowers blooming in the early spring already. The round trip of this hike is about 2 hours. Everyone enjoy a great reward at the end - a view of the valley sitting on rock couch.

2013-04-21 Avenue Twin Peaks Hike (#1)

Hiking Photo Link

2013 is wetter and colder than 2012. Our first hike in 2012 was on March 11. We started our 2013 hike at the same trail, but over a month late compared to last year. The weather was so pleasant with occasional gentle breeze. It was a great exercise to shed some winter fat. The Twin Peaks look daunting from the trailhead, but surprisingly, everyone made to both peaks. The view is fantastic at the top. Praise the Lord for a wonderful fellowship and friendship.
