Hiking the Nemo Creek Trail

I like to geek out while having real experiences. I maintain an extensive GPS database from my hikes, bikes, runs, and skis dating back to 2008. Feel free to follow the georss feed, explore the map above or download the GPS tracks below.

We had a brisk and wet hike up the Nemo Creek Trail. Started with a couple false starts, as we accidentally followed a few "use trails" that stuck tight to the creek and (amazing!) waterfalls. Multiple paths petered out and were challenging to follow and we turned around at a random meadow/marsh. Turns out the *real* trail was on the other side of the marsh, but we found it after backtracking and picking up the real trail. The real trail was easy walking (albeit relatively steep) and took us through some really nice native growth forest and enormous glacial erratics (bolders) that were nicknamed... something castle... rock castles? Aptly named. Apparently there's a prospectors cabin just at the end of the trail, but we didn't find it.
