Last weekend we headed to Rasar State Park to camp with our friends Jennifer, Rene, Ryan and Ethan. This is our third annual trip with them after spontaneously having them go to Lake Chelan with us after hanging out at t-ball practice with them. Turns out they're high quality camping pals! The campground was nice but the water access was poor so it's not one we'll be going back to.
This was the junior ranger activity Saturday morning. They got to learn about the different types of salmon in the skagit river. They colored fish and made fishing poles to string them up on.
We made quite a few trips over to the playground area.
But no matter how many times we went the kids always ended up over at this tree!
Saturday we decided to head up to Baker Lake. There are multiple campgrounds along it and we were hoping for a good water play time.
There were several logs floating in the water we had fun climbing all over!
Saturday evening they did a ranger walk where they talked about the elk and such in the area. This field is on the way to the river, they have fences built around their young trees to keep the elk from damaging them. There is apparently an elk herd in the area with about 90 elk in it. Daddy was kind enough to go without me because I wasn't feeling well. Thanks Daddy!
Luckily we saw a creek nearby (just off the road outside the campground) and we went there to play on Sunday. The kids (and the Dads) had a great time throwing rocks and building up the "dam".
Jennifer and I!
We had a great time! Water time, bike rides, playground time, walks, fires, s'mores! It was fantastic.
