Hope and I on the way up. It got sunny, so I had to borrow Scott's hat. I had her hat...in the car. How convenient. Do you like that I had my collar up? I forgot sunscreen on my neck...it helped, I'm not burned!
How pretty is this?

Hope all bundled up for the cave, it was cold in there. Ahhhh, it felt good after that hike!


It took us about an hour to get up to the cave. It was a hard hike, and I had Hope in the Baby Bijorn. Scott had the back-pack with all the water, snacks and camera. I would have made him carry both (just kidding I'm certainly not THAT selfish :), but Hope has been attached to my hip this trip.




Before the hike...getting ready to go up.




We had a fun time today at the caves. The hike up was hard, but good. I didn't feel like I needed to hit the gym after that's for sure. My butt is feeling it tonight, I'm sure I will wake up sore tomorrow. Hunter , Hannah and Hayden all did great! They are quite the little hikers. They were leading the trail. We did have some good treats that made it all doable. Scott was our mule ;) Hope had to wear her PJ's, and we had to borrow sweat shirts from Hayley...who would have brought sweatshirts in 100*+ weather? Not me.

That's weird seeing you there since we drive by it all the time. Glad you had fun! That's the canyon where Todd road bikes. Love Hayden in that photo!

Glad you had a good time. Last time I did that trail I was very sore. I remember thinking I would be in fabulous shape if I could some how do it everyday.
