Devil's Bathtub

The hiking club returned for a third trip to the Devil's Bathtub today.  Some new members hadn't been, and we had been waiting for an opportunity to go.  We chose the dry, fall weather to make for easier navigation and crowd avoidance and we were successful on both counts.  It was a very nice, although overcast, day.  We had a very brief light shower, but otherwise enjoyed the cooler weather after a record hot September.  We decided to count the creek crossings today.  There were 15 one way, which is two miles.  This was hike number 10 for 2019.
