I hiked the Dog Run Hollow trail for the last seven days so today I thought I would hike around to the North side of Mt. Scott. The trail is actually a gravel/rock service road but it does have a lot of elevation change. It is a surprisingly challenging hike but it is lacking the boulders that you clime on the Dog Run Hollow trail. I will be hiking this trail over the next few days. I did to see the game that I usually see but there was sign. Lots of trees Nd I could see the snow on all the elevated surfaces from last nights snow flurries. Also the top of Mt. Scott on this side had a lot of snow showing. The trail is 5-miles long. It is an out and back so the total complaint hike would be 10-miles. My hike this morning started at 7:15am. I Hiked 5.5 miles in 2 hours and 15 minutes . The weather was cold but with light wind it was tolerable. The areas where snow was covering the grass seemed to be colder. All in all I enjoyed this hike... Weather during hike:
Partly Cloudy Start Temp: 30 End Temp: 37 Windchill: 29 (lowest recorded during hike)
