Adventures
Fall Colors Stack Rock Trail
Stack Rock Trail is located off Bogus Basin Rd near the Bogus Basin Ski Resort. We love this trail because we have seen it all and can hike as much or as little as we like. We wanted to take Asa on another adventure, but we wanted to test her limits a little more. This hike was perfect since we could theoretically go almost 10 miles round trip if Asa could manage it. Spoiler: we didn't make it that far. In all, we hiked 3 miles and carried Asa for about a quarter mile in the middle, shortly after starting our way back to the car.
Meet Asa! She is a 2-year-old Shiba-Inu who we adopted from the Humane Society less than a week ago. She has been doing great and has stolen our hearts. We hope to take her on more adventures, but we are learning what she can do, and this hike is a significant step.
The Complete Stack Rock Hike
We hiked the complete Stack Rock Trail. It was quite spectacular, but my knees were definitely feeling it by the end. It is just around 11 miles to complete the entire hike depending on how much adventuring you do once you reach Stack Rock. Going in the fall adds a nice touch of color to this hike and the cooler temperatures are a real blessing. There is a lot of sun exposure during the first half of this hike, and you will really feel it the second half if you go in the heat of the summer.
