Hike the Independence Trail

07/16/17

We wanted a mix of hiking a river which is why we picked this spot near grass valley. We took the east trail based on the directions in the description and I'd like to try the west trail and see where that leads, because by the time we reached the river we'd gone almost 3 miles. By the time we reached the river we realized what all the hype was about; crystal clear water, gentle current, nestled in between the gorgeous hills. I did discover that many people don't wear suits here- so keep that in mind if that makes you uncomfortable.
