Hike to Frog Pond via Cache Creek Regional Park

Hike to Frog Pond VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL

We were having breakfast and talking about what we were going to do today. The weather is so beautiful today, expected highs in the mid 70’s!! I had the idea to “drive” up by Chico/Paradise area and then up on the Feather River… Ev said we should go to Cache Creek and hike (hiking is more healthy, so we opted to hike).. So we packed up a lunch, us and the dogs and off we went. We got to the park about 11am and we were on our way. The weather was perfect! I wore shorts and tank top, Ev started out with long sleeves, however soon the long sleeve shirt came off. We took both Ripley and Kaylee with us.. Kaylee just rips through the trails like they’re flat and Ripley with his bad back knee got to hitch a ride with “Mom” or “Dad”.. Mom has the “puppy pack” so it is easy to take him.. Of course when I was packing him up hill it was quite the workout! We had a nice lunch (tuna sandwiches) at the pond, where we could see and hear the frogs!! Nice hike.. On a scale of 1 to 5, and 5 being the most difficult, I would say it was about a 2 hike. We hiked 5 miles round trip up to Frog Pond..
