Today we had a fantastic display of wildflowers. There were lupine and California puppies and fields of irises as far as you can see. I usually see irises one at a time, but today they came in fields.
Streams crossings were a problem today as many were so high we had to take our booths of. In particularly Rattlesnake Creek was high and fast.
We made camp by Horse Mountain Creek. My original plan was to hike up Horse Mountain Ridge and connect to the southern section, but the group voted to continue on the beach to Shelter Cove. We will have to hike 4 miles on the highway to make the connection.
