04/03/26 - Another Hike Along the Elwha

Taking a hike along the Elwha from Madison Falls is a good way to track the progress of spring. The skunk cabbage was blooming on our last hike. This time we didn't get that far, but we were rewarded with trilliums, toad lilies, yellow violets and fawn lilies. Also, the trail has been rerouted a bit and an awkward to get at footbridge has been removed.
