Touring & hiking Sherman Pass & Sherman Point Trail in Washington

Rainy day trip to Kettle Falls Washington & some of the short hikes around there.    We hiked around Sherman Peak - bitter cold and windy & both of us didn't think to bring gloves!   BRRRRRRRR

There's a less strenuous little interpretive loop a half mile up the road from the trail which we walked too,  the Sherman Pass/Sherman Peak trail is part of the PNW Trail but we didn't see any other hikers out today.   Snow is forecast, but that doesn't stop the hardcore hikers. 

Here's a small gazebo along the bite size 10 minute walk nearby,  and the parking lot.   Clean 2-room pit toilet here too.

Down the hill we stopped at a dedication to the Civilian Conservation Corps which had at one point included plans for an elaborate man made lake and park area,  real shame that didn't come to happen it would be amazing!

Further down the hill,  the Sherman Point trail is around 3 miles (on foot) round trip and first crosses a very tall out-of-service bridge, walks past some wheat fields,  a ton of pheasants,  and a lot of really cool views of the river.
