Overnight at Chehalis park, pancake breakfast in the morning, thunder and lightning just before we got going the next morning. Didn't take any pictures for some reason.

Just after we got started, we had light rain, then a bit of sleet, then it cleared up. Marci, who left just before us, had a bit of hail as well as sleet.
