well, i’m back hiking in my hometown. after banff, you’d think i’d be disappointed, but the pacific northwest rocks for hiking! tyler and hiked this great waterfall hike, which includes horsetail falls, ponytail falls, and triple falls. the trail actually runs behind ponytail falls, which tyler thought was cool.

triple falls is where we waded in the water a bit, had lunch, turned around and hiked out.

i think i’ve maxed out tyler…and we agreed to go our separate ways when it comes to hiking. strange to believe a 13 year old boy would prefer video games to the great outdoors. go figure. he’s been such a trooper…and he says it hasn’t been all bad. i’d have to agree.
