Today’s Photo

The story behind this photo ... 

Today we stared hiking around 8:45 am. Legolas lost a baby tooth at breakfast eating a Belvita. I told him his trail name should be toothless instead. He didn’t agree. lol. Beautiful warm day to hike. High of 80’s with a lite breeze. Sunny with minimal bugs! PTL. 

We took a snack break at Kinter’s view and saw a Chinook helicopter flying over the next mountain ridge. It was at eye level which was cool to see. 

Here we stopped at this campsite for lunch. Spam sandwich with an apple and a couple Oreo cookies was on tap for the boys! They whittled some wands last night at the campfire and have been playing HP on and off all day. lol. 

This was the campfire at last nights shelter. It was very nice. Right on top of the mountain ridge. 

This was one of the easier sections of the trail so you can see it isn’t all rocks all the time. lol. Tonight we will stealth camp near the parking lot with Amee right next door since it might rain tonight and the next shelter is way to far to hike for us in one day. So I really don’t want to take our tent if I can help it since it adds 8# to my pack.
