After hiking the Red mtn. lookout site, we turned toward the E and hiked along the Sauk river. This is a quiet and beautiful walk in the woods. Large old growth trees lined the trail, sun filtered down through and cast shadows on the rocks. We could hear the river but not see it for the first mile or so. We hiked as far as the trail junction with the Pilot Ridge trail then ate lunch and turned around. The parking lot was full, but we saw only 2 other people dayhiking. With no mtn. views and all the moss, this would be a great hike for a rainy day!
