Section Line 4/28/2021

Almost Dry

We have had one of the driest Aprils on record so I wasn’t surprised to see little Trillium Creek running low.

Anyway, I did my standard Section Line conditioning hike today. However, I should mention that all the hiking is paying off. It used to take me 40 minutes to get from the E. Sunset Way lot to the start of Section Line; today I did it in 34 minutes. And the Section Line, up to the intersection with the Nook Connector, used to take 35 minutes. Today I did it in 23 minutes. And without much straining.

On the way down Nook I saw a new sign:

And here is the view itself:

The View

The only thing I could find via web search was that there is a video game, whose description sounds like it is a Pokemon rip-off, with a character called Pipsee. Is this some sort of gamer homage?

Another decent workout and the snow on the mountains continues to melt out. I am thinking next week I might just venture up Mount Si and/or Mount Washington.
