 Draper Suspension Bridge  #13

hikers: 2

distance: 2 miles

elevation gain: 439 feet

Here is a view of the valley at 8:21am on one of the longest days of the year. The valley is bathed in sunlight but the bridge is still in the shade as the sun comes up.

On our way down we noticed this interesting fence post! I don't know how long it has been here but it is actually sprouting a new green branch!!! We talked to someone who was walking by and he thought it was some kind of elm. Even an old fence post has life in it and can grow.
