Trails, dude



My little one checks out the scenery at the start of the Wufeng Ch'ingt'ung Lin Hiking Trail 霧峰青桐林步道. The Kaminoge family visited the area in the late afternoon today to check the trails, or as much of one trail as we could before things started to get dark. The mountain scenery there was much more striking than that in the more accessible Tak'eng 大坑 area, so I'm planning on making the long scooter ride out to Wufeng on one of these upcoming Tuesday afternoons, and give myself more time to explore the trails.


Mother and daughter pause on the walk up from the parking lot. You can't see them in the photo, but Pamela and Amber were standing amid a thick cluster of buzzing dragonflies. We also saw a lot of butterflies today, as well as crickets, earthworms and even monkeys moving around in distant treetops.


Amber having fun jumping up and down on a short rope bridge. This was the point where we turned back before it got too dark.
