Lair of the Bear is one of my favorite places to hike with kids. Its a manageable loop, but long enough that it feels like you have accomplished something. We made plans to go there with the Platt boys (and MC). When we arrived (at 10 AM), a huge thunderstorm was looming overhead. We waited for a few minutes and then decided to head out because the clouds seemed to be breaking. Turns out, it was perfect timing. The sun was out, but it was cool. Jonah and Adler started off running and announcing that they were "super hikers!"
Landon and Isaac noticed a lot along the way and chatted to each other the entire way. I love listening to 6 year old conversations.
Baby Elliot joined us as well and slept most of the way.
Mischievous Adler. Soon after this picture he had turned his hands and most of his face black with soot from the grill.
Landon enjoying lunch in the woods with his buddies.
After the hike we found a good place to throw things into the river.
And again, Adler managed to completely cover his hands in mud.
We stopped for ice cream on the way home.
