April Bowl has always been one of our favorite hikes in Hatcher's pass, and this was the FIRST time Mike has been able to make the trip with us - mostly b/c we're not patient enough to wait for him to come home from work.
The trail takes only about 20 minutes to get up to the second set of lakes and past the waterfall. Switchbacks, and a LONG drop down...
Near the top!
Mike is an expert rock skipper, and is always trying to help the kids. Sadee was super fascinated, which led to a lot of hilarity.
Mike took a ton of geology classes in college, and we all find rocks pretty interesting, so we have to inspect. Also. There are gold mines up there for a reason...
After SO many rocks had been tossed in the lake by Mike and the kids, Sadee was determined to pull one out for herself. She seriously dunked her whole head under the water to get the massive rock at her feet.
Oh. This was also the day before our EIGHTEENTH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. Go us ;-)
