Herring Cove

On Monday, I worked a half day because I had training from 6-9pm and because it was a beautiful sunny day in Sitka I went for a hike with Katie and Evie on the recently opened Herring Cove Trail. It was a really nice hike with a huge variety of natural features: all of the steps utilized rocks naturally there, a large number of little waterfalls coming down from the mountain, paths that cut through logs and large boulders, a view of a large waterfall and snow capped mountains, and it connected with the Beaver Lake trail which is a loop around one of the mountain lakes. It was such a beautiful sight, the weather was perfect (sunny and low 60's), and it quickly became my favorite trail.
