We have talked and talked and talked about hiking with our kids and we finally did one with them last summer. Well, we decided it was time to start again! We went for Summit Lake! It is about 5 miles round trip with about an 1100 foot elevation gain. It was a little much for Carson, he ended up stuck riding between us and our back packs for about half of it. The kids had a great time and tell me they want to go on another one soon!
On the way driving up to the hike!
Our emergency child carriers!
The boys had a great time collecting pinecones on the way up!
I wish we could have stayed longer, and let the kids play in the water but it was COLD!
We've started compiling a list of supplies we need to get to take the kids on a short back packing trip. I just have to be sure there isn't too much elevation gain so we don't end up carrying Carson again!
