Yellow Pine Creek

For our third hike of the weekend, we went for the Yellow Pine Creek hill climb.  This is always a tough hike and for our third day of hiking it showed no mercy.  We usually do this as an early season hike since it is at lower elevation.  It was fun to see the trail during the fall.  It was completely different with the leaves off the trees.
