Yesterday was warm enough to hike, or so we thought, and figured we would give it a shot. We decided Red Rock should be nice and we wanted to check out the short hike with the waterfall, hoping it would have water. The weather ended up being perfect, the hike was nice and short since it was our first of the year and the waterfall was really falling! We weren't sure how well Summer would do, last year we ended up carrying her a lot and this year she is a lot heavier but to our surprise she did so well, so much better than last year. She had a great time hiking through the "forest" and climbing all over the rocks. She kept jumping off small rocks and it was kinda scary because I kept thinking she would fall. She did fall a few times but got right back up on the next rock that got in her path. She even diverted her path so that she could find some rocks to climb on and jump off of. She got quite dirty but was loving everything. It was warm enough that we didn't even need jackets. The hike (Lost Creek Canyon I think) was about a mile in and a mile out so just far enough to get us adjusted. Summer walked the entire way all by herself. She had a little help when we got to the larger rock decline area, but overall she did an amazing job.
Here are pictures at the waterfall, Summer loved trying to touch the water. Both her and daddy got a little wet but it was so worth it! I was able to get behind the waterfall to take a few pictures.
Random photo wearing her new hiking hat that Charlene got for her. She kept the hat on the entire time, which was nice, she usually wants the hat off. It is a really pretty blue color and the style of hat matched my own.
You can see how wet she got, see the bottom of her pants? She didn't mind, she kept saying she was going to need a bath.
Summer picked up that big rock and told us that she was very strong. We agreed, she is very strong!
On the trail back to the car. At this point she did ask to be carried but we told her we were almost to the car and she was ok with that answer and walked and ran the rest of the way.
