Tamolich Pool

Published on 8/26/2018
August 22, 2018. My appreciation to Karen and Nancy for putting up with two 86-year-old coots and an autism-spectrum 20-year-old (who is a good hiker). My college friend Brice, now living in Pasadena, hiked with us, and my grandson from Indianapolis was here in a family visit. It was the last day of our heat wave, and smoky, but neither of those bothered us. We spotted my car at Trailbridge Reservoir and made a seven-mile one-way hike downstream from Sahalie Falls. Sahalie Falls and Koosah Falls were awesome as usual. For some of us, Tamolich Pool -- also known as "the blue pool" -- was even more awesome, and so unexpected after we had hiked down the dry riverbed! Guests Brice Harris, Karen Reed, and Mackenzie Yumibe, and members Nancy Mauter and leader George Struble.
