Climbing the badger.

The Average path!

When I first started  this summer My Plans this summer my goal was the coupon thing and running.... well running has now become a different goal. BADGER!! Its a great since of accomplishment, once you get to climbing you kinda see the end and don't wanna just give up.... YOU SEE THE TOP!! and of course once you are up there you have to climb back down!!

When you first park off the road which is oddly in west Richland off Gage and Keen, Shockley to be more exact.you would never expect there to be a place to climb right here. OK so its not a crazy climb by any means, but its gotten my heart rate up and im now more fit and toned than I have been in AGES!! After parking I have a slight incline i go to get to the killer... the killer to me are the damn stairs!! At first its just a flight with long steps, and more and steeper. by the time im there, im already out of breath and i want to quit! BUT!! I know if I choose the path to the left its not so bad, actually kinda nice!! Its apart of the trail head loop.
