Snowbowl Hike



What better thing to do on a Sunday afternoon than to go for a nice little hike in the mountains? When you have two wild little boys with plenty of energy, lounging around at home is not an option.


So off we went. There is a massive amount of trails in this area, so finding a good hike was not a problem. We decided on a loop up Snowbowl road (which leads to the local ski resort). Who likes to hike out and back? Not us!

One of the best parts of hiking is taking breaks, right? Noah and Max make sure we get plenty of those! Just taking time to take in the beauty and fresh air, being aware of all your senses, and spotting tiny animals in the woods is such a treat!


Climbing on big boulders is always an adventure!


Sap everywhere! On Max' fingers, in his mouth, covering his clothes... Karl worked really hard to get it (almost) all off. As soon as he turned around, Max proceeded to pick the sap up from the ground and stick it back in his mouth! Why am I not surprised???


I love Sunday hikes. So simple, so wonderful.

Right now I should be working on my Sunday talk. Not so simple and probably not so wonderful. But equally refreshing and uplifting!
