Family day out. Gambled for a good weather and weren't disappointed. The forecasts are getting worse and off almost every day now. Original plan was to follow Cat Creek Ridge trail north of an unnamed hill but found a solid unmapped trail south of it, which is definitely shorter. Didn't know there was a coal mine but came across of some its remrants.
