Eagles’ Rest

April 8, 2001

We left the rendezvous point at Amazon Community Center promptly at 9:00 a.m. and arrived at Eagles’ Rest Trailhead at 9:45 to begin hiking about 10 minutes later. We stopped for a water break at Ash Swale Shelter, which has recently been rebuilt. The summit was reached at about 11:15 and we had lunch while enjoying the limited views of Mt. June, Hardesty Mountain and environs. Sheila spotted the golden eagle for which the mountain is named. Enjoying displays of Pacific dogwood, yellow violet, calypso, oxalis and other wild flowers along the way were Sheila Ward, Barbara Bruns, Joanne Ledet, Maggie Wells and Joe Scheibe (trip leader). Many thanks to Barbara for driving and returning us to our rendezvous by 2:30.
