John Muir, the famous naturalist and hiker, didn’t worry about the difference between walking and hiking when he said,“I only went out for a walk and finally concluded to stay out until sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.”

Location: Proud Lake Recreation Area, MI

Hiked with: Gary and Darby

Route/trail: Wixom Loop

Weather: 80 and sunny

Duration:1 hr. 5 min., 2.82 miles

Altitudes/elevations/conditions:The trail was in such poor condition that we probably won't come back....trees down across the path in many places that had been there for quite a while

Sightings: lovely wildflowers

Emotions, etc: sad that this park that is so wonderful for kayaking isn't the same for hiking....cut the hike short due to the conditions
