The below from Jeff pretty much sums up the hike -- great company, great conversation, great weather, and a fun time at Mad River Coffee Roasters afterwards.   The pictures are from the Scaur, and we had lunch at the flume.  Thanks everyone for joining, and hope to see you soon!         

Very enjoyable hike. Perfect cool, breezy weather, great guys, fragrant forest, and just a pleasant hike. Good gathering at Mad River Coffee House afterwards as well. Thanks, Thad!
