The Hike

On our Memorial Day trek to Mt. Rainier we stopped at a campground and did a hike to a waterfall. This was one of Hayes and Madison's first "hikes" and they did really well. The way there was mostly an uphill trek, and the trail was covered in snow or fallen trees in some areas, but the forded it all with enthusiasm. We hiked through a natural hot spring, and traversed Laughing Creek many times. The trees smelled so good, and the sun was setting as we made our way to the falls. The falls themselves were impressive and worth the 2.5 miles we walked over some rather rough terrain! Good work Hayes and Madison!
