Possum Creek Gorge Plateau TTA

 Deb led 12 hikers on this beautiful CT hike. It started out cold 28 degrees, but the sun was shining. We shuttled a car to Retro Hughes trailhead then came back and started at Heiss Mountain Trailhead. The waterfalls and creeks were running strong and full today. And there were wildflowers! Pussytoes, Shooting Stars, Saxifrage, Fire Pinks, Purple Phacelia was all over the rocks in the second gorge. The red trilliums were tightly closed waiting for warmer temps, Foamflower, Trailing Arbutus, and two green lizards sunning on a tree. We ate lunch on one of the big boulders overlooking the gorge. Beautiful day.
