Often when my weekend is busy but I still want to hike, I'll just head out to Silver Falls State Park to do the Trail of Ten Falls loop, or a modified one shorter depending on my time constraint. In January, this was the case! Not much to post about this one that I haven't already said, but I will reiterate how much I love Silver Falls State Park, regardless of a good amount of tourists on these hikes! It provides good length and great elevation change for a solid workout, not to mention all the stunning waterfalls!
- Date of hike: January 25th, 2015
- Distance: 9 Mile Loop
- Elevation gain: 1300 Feet
- Difficulty: Easy (at least for me at this point)
- Mile Mark: 224

Beautiful fog rolling in on the way back into Salem
