Between our regular errands, Christmas shopping and decorating the house this weekend, we thought we'd take a quick hike up to a small, scenic waterfall in the Bitterroot Valley.
Unfortunately, the weather wasn't exactly cooperative - it tried its best to snow, which mostly ended up as rain, and the trail was coated in an icy slush. I think that's the wettest walk I've been on since tramping around Scotland in the fall of 2007.
Still it was good to stretch our legs, even though we didn't end up with much photo-wise. (What you see above is about the extent of it.)
Distance: 3 miles round trip.
Trailhead: From Victor, drive 3.3 miles south on U.S. Highway 93, 2.3 miles west on Bear Creek Road, 0.8 miles north on Red Crow Road and 3.2 miles west on Red Crow and Bear Creek roads.
