Silver Creek Falls

May 18, 1974

After waiting 20 minutes for the other six people who signed up but did not come, we left the parking lot just as it began to rain. Optimistically, believing the weather man report that the weather will clear we proceeded undaunted. However, it did not clear and in fact we were deluged with water the rest of the day—overhead and underfoot. Besieged by the environment we were not able to fully appreciate the beauties of the park and falls and wild flowers, as we would have otherwise. However, in spite of it all, the glorious beauty of this area won, over the distaste for the weather, and, we all voted after the return to the cars that we were glad we had come. All those waterfalls and wildflowers are indeed an inspiration! The hardy souls who braved the rain: Rolfe & Bertha Anderson, Gladys Grancorvitz, Ruth Nichols, Robert Nordahl, Don Payne, George Peffell (member Seattle Mountaineers), Merle Traudt and leaders Hazen & Lorene Bressler.
