I haven't hiked in three weeks, where to go My knee is still not back to normal, so I wanted to do a semi-flat-ish hike Captain Jack suggested Noble Knob and off we went
The 6 miles of gravel on FS 7174 is steep, rough and super bumpy We made it to the TH ok though
This is a really nice hike, some ups and downs but the overall elevation gain isn't much Perfect hike for my knee The huckleberries are out! I couldn't stop picking them and ended up getting a whole water bottle full of huckles! Nice view of Rainier on top of the Knob and we could also see Glacier Peak, Mt. Stuart and the Enchantment Peaks on the other side
Thanks for the company CJ, nice pick!
yummy
bigo huckleberry
benchmark!

Welcome back to the trails ST! We have missed you....as someone who is also nursing a knee, I am looking for more 8-12 mile trails that aren't knee killer steep...I'll add this one to the list....good to see your post

How did the knee hold up after your hike?
Those are some great looking berries Our hike times get much slower during berry season. Those little blue wonders cause our pace to slow dow.....gotta have time to browse for berries
This thing called work is interfering with my play

Still eating the huckleberries I want some blueberries this weekend
The knee didn't hurt afterwards, I took lots of ibuprofen though Plus lots of stretching before and during and after, and then ice when I got back home Might be able to do something with a bit more elevation gain this coming weekend
