HOBEN CREEK

Hoben Creek is the next major creek north of Nemo Creek, between it and Sharp Creek.

Route: Begin on the north side of the creek, through easy brush and forest (no trail). At the first cascade, climb to the ridge line and then over an open, moss-covered, rocky section. Return to the creek and cross on a very large cedar log (still there?) to the south side.
There are two falls above. For the first, there is a cleft in the rock wall 60 meters left of the fall. At the second fall, do the same.
The vertical rise to Hoben Lakes (the middle, biggest lake) is 1440 meters. The western lake is much higher. Round trip about 8 hours.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
