Notes
3/28 Catherine Creek (Lyle, WA) 3 lp/450’ 9:00am-2:00pm

This pretty hike is an easy stroll featuring expansive views of the Columbia River Gorge near Lyle, Washington. Nature willing, we hope to enjoy the first crop of spring wildflowers including early bloomers such as Grass Widows, Gold Stars, Yellow Bells, and Columbia Desert Parsley, as well as possibly a few Trillium, Balsamroot, Phlox, Lupine, Paintbrush, and Monkey flowers.
