Ape caves hike

This week wasn't too bad :-) ran three days this week for a total of 11.58 miles. Yesterday a couple friends and myself went to Mt Saint Helens for a hike in the ape caves. The lower part of the hike is easy...minus walking in complete darkness. It's only 1.5 miles total to the end in back. Then you can walk the upper cave which include multiple challenges climbing over piles of rocks, some easier than others a 2 mile hike through the cave and 2 miles back to the car. Then comes the hard parts...walls. I was so terrified! You have to step in a hole and pull yourself up...it was super hard and it took me a while to decide I could do it. Afterward it felt great! Worth all the hard work and scary trama. Makes you realize how much you can accomplish just trying. Afterward we did have s burger though...we earned it lol :-)
