Hike up by Bogus Basin Ski Resort

On Saturday we drove up to the Ski Resort and hiked around. At first it was shady and steep--very pretty, then we wound over across the top along the face of the mountain. At one point we got a view to the northeast (?) and could see the mountains heading off towards Idaho City. The trail would around for quite a while and we kept thinking it was time to go downhill and start back. Finally it was and we were pretty tired. Caleb fell asleep near the end but woke up as we were nearing the lodge where we had parked. There we had a great little snack and Caleb had lots of fun.

Starting out:

This is just as we were coming out of the trees.
View towards Idaho City--this picture really doesn't do it justice. It was in the middle of the afternoon and not the best time for pictures.


Afterwards we sat at this covered picnic table and ate stale pretzels (Caleb had some peanut butter sandwich left, but devoured the pretzels as well) that tasted wonderful!

Calebs smile, in that first picture where he's in the back pack, is so cute! He's also cute when he fell asleep. I wonder if Ethan would cry like last time if we took him out in the backpack....although i think he may be too big-it would probably kill ryan's back...:)
