Thirteen of us hiked the 6.6 miles to the lean-to on Middle Settlement Lake.

My other brother and nephew joined us for what started out as a beautiful sunny day, another hot hiking day which quickly transformed into a torrential downpour for the last 1.5 miles.

Still a great hike, just had to be very careful on the trail with the water gushing around us, especially coming down the final rocky part. Thanks to Sharon and Amanda for a nice hike. Tom Smith thought he would be the only on cooling off in the water. After the downpour we were all refreshed.
