Cougar Sighting

Intended to hike ridgeline from highway near Little Dell to Bald Mountain, and return via Big Hatch Canyon trail, if I could locate it. About a mile and a half into the hike I caught a glimpse of a couger which soon darted away. I decided to change direction and avoid additional contact witht he cougar. Did encounter a couple of moose and songbirds, especially yellow warblers were plentiful along the Hatch trail.
