Write Up:
As usual, Mt Yonah provided the setting for a wonderful hike.  Now that it is warmer and the rock dries more quickly, we are able to go to the climbing wall...definitely adds a bit of extra adventure added to the day.   But we relaxed on the Boulder, then the climbing wall and then went higher to enjoy the gorgeous views as usual.  We had time to relax for a long lunch break at the southern overlook before gathering back on the west side to enjoy the sunset.   Not a lot of clouds to enhance it but at least not too many to obscure it like the last couple of times...it was beautiful as always.  We hiked down in the dark to end another fun sunset hike..hopefully another coming soon.

Total distance was about 4.7 miles and about 1700 feet of ascent.
