Each river crossing was like an adventure, hopping from rock to rock or balancing on a fallen log. There was some rock climbing involved a couple of times, and some scrambling up a gravelly hill. Peyton caught a fish by hand, Grace found some sweet smelling bark, and I found a frisbee. The weather was great, the water was freezing cold, and we all had a great time.
The beginning of the trail
One of many crossings. The next jump was to the large rock in the bottom left of the picture.
For the record, I made it.
This is one of the bigger logs we crossed
Grace and Payton looked much cuter in front of the waterfall than me

Looking down on where we've been
The water is as cold as Grace's face looks like it is. Payton walked up the stream, I slinked along the rock on the left, Grace went exploring and found some bark with sweet resin
The largest of 3 punch bowls. I've got to go swimming here in the summer.
