Bikin' and Trikin'

On the fourth of July we took advantage of the great weather here and went for a hike. We did the Rachel Lake hike just off exit 62 on I-5. We did not hike all the way up to Rachel Lake since it was about 3 miles up and then back. But we did have a really nice hike about a mile or so in. The creek was rushing down pretty heavily very early on and the water was crystal clear.

We stopped near the creek and had lunch. It was a bit rocky for him to be crawling around so we kept him in the backpack. He didn't seem to mind and gobbled up his crackers, turkey, cheese, and blueberries. We have to give him the blueberries last or that's all he'll eat.

We finally hit a fallen log that would've hard for me to climb over with the backpack so we turned around and went back. We could've kept going but he was getting tired and ready for a nap. We bought some hiking poles after this hike and plan on taking Christian on more hikes this summer.
