16 September 2017 Getting Wet in Warren

Since we were in Pennsylvania without the dogs, we decided to finally hike to a higher terrain cache in the area. We knew the general area and knew getting the cache required crossing Irvine Run. The cache supposedly offered great views so we were all in.

We've seen Irvine Run higher as well as lower. It was moving fast today.

We walked the bank to look for the best crossing point.

The crossing was relatively easy. We both got wet, but were soon on the other side walking a trail with wildflowers and butterflies.

The trail was what we expected. It was an easy climb for us. The view near the cache was worth wet feet (and boots).

We made our way back down and re-crossed the stream.

I was a little wet, but less than I expected. We chose a good crossing spot over and back.

I was glad I wore older boots for the crossing.
