Silver Falls

Our second hike today was to Silver Falls in Mt Rainier National Park. We choose to take the short trail from off of Hwy 123. This made for a 1/2 mile round trip hike.

 The trail goes down a couple of switchbacks, soon Silver Falls is in view.

There are some nice rocky cliff walls along the way.
