This is not a hard climb. Most might say it is just a walk in the woods. But it is my climb, the one I resort to on any day, to refresh, to contemplate, to recuperate through life's times. Nothing stands out probably to the eye of most people, and I rarely see many people on the various routes I take (although more are finding it within the recent years). With views of the multiple valleys and mountain ranges that surround Missoula, this is a big reward/low effort affair, and something I have walked up to every month of the year. Today was a stellar pre-spring day, and Clark's nutcrackers were out and boisterous.
