Maple Cathedral

 Maple Grove, along the Indian Mound Trail, is unusually beautiful this year.  This is looking North from the Trail toward Gladstone Blvd.   

The "easiest" way to get to the Grove is go straight down the bluff from Hardest and Gladstone Blvd.  Not real difficult, just steep.  Above, what you see about 1/3 of the way down. 

Above and below you can see the Trail.  It's not difficult, you just need good footwear. 

Lay on your back to get the full effect.
