Family Hike - Adams Canyon



So we took the family on a little hike up Adams Canyon. We left around 4ish so packed up dinner so we could eat up at the falls. I think it turned out a little more difficult than most of us thought - mostly b/c trying to climb with all those little kids was a challenge. I kept thinking how lucky we were to be in Adams Canyon though, and not in Blue John (my last hike). Now THAT would have been "fun"!

Robert wrestling with Carmelo's leash. We had Carmelo, Tracy and Fraya all on the hike. Carmelo did great as long as he could see Jenn, Tracy did fine as long as he wasn't near the water and Fraya had to be carried pretty much the whole way the big wuss

Kids taking a break - we stopped for dinner


The falls and creek were overflowing - the water was running fast and it was a little nerve wracking with all those little kids around it.


Looking up at the family climbing. I'm still trying to figure out how, after passing off Cayden to Jenn, Curtis went the entire rest of the hike without carrying anything. And dad had two packs for 1/2 the trip! hmmm....

Natalie taking a break while holding Fraya. That's pretty much how Fraya "hiked"...lazy bones dog!

Jenn ended up carrying Cayden a lot of the way


Falls - I think this is the lower falls

I snuck into mom and dad's pic when dad made mom cross part way so she could see the upper falls. She wasn't too happy to get her feet wet, but I think her smile says she was glad to see the falls. My face just says that I think I'm hilarious. Well I AM!
