Climbing the Clearwater Palisades


In our family, it is both an annual event and a rite of passage to climp up to the top of the palisades about a mile down the lake from the lodge. If any of the kids come up for a visit and bring friends, the palisade climbing is the first challenge that everyone must experience. There is a path that one can use which is a nice hike, but the Trace family (Peg and Mike's kids and my neices and nephews) likes to go right up the rock face. This photo is from the spring climb.

Alicia Trace is planning her last palisades hike of the summer. She is in college in OH but came up for the summer and lived on the resort and worked at the Trail Center Restaurant.
