We drove out to Leavenworth to hike Mountain Home Ridge trails, about 3.5 miles and 500 ft of gain. We went up the Canyon Crest Trail and came back on the Rat Creek Ridge Trail. Next time, I would go the other way so we would be hiking into the views. We saw 4 other hikers and 2 cyclists
The hike up is in the forest until we reached the far side of the loop. There were some serviceberry trees in bloom,
quite a few anemones,
and a few balsamroot, along with other wildflowers.
