First Hiking Trip

A couple of weeks ago we took Mayson on her first hiking trip.  We drove up to Denny Creek and hiked up to the rock water slide area and beyond to the beautiful waterfall via Melakwa Lake.  We figured we would start with a 4 mile hike since we didn't know how Mayson would do in her backpack for a longer trip.  She did great!  I think she could have gone a lot further...The problem was we weren't in good enough shape to carry her much further!  We had a lunch stop at the river rock slide, and Mayson had a little nap on the hike back.  It was a beautiful summer day!
