While mom may have had the kids shower every day in San Diego, let's just say that Daddy Camp plays by slightly different rules. We went and did laundry at a little general store - but we didn'tLue lisää

We stopped at LodgePole and saw a very nice little documentary about bears. WE LOVE THE BEARSIES!! We just want to hug them and squeeze them and kiss their little black nosies!
Sorry - anyway - weLue lisää

1.7 miles. That's what the guy told us - and every other sucker we met on the trail who all said (in one way or another) "1.7 miles my ass!" Still - the start of the hike was very pretty andLue lisää

And then it happened! We'd seen several bears from the car last summer in Shenandoah - including a baby bear eating a deer by the side of the road. And we saw fresh scat on the trail when we wereLue lisää

The rest of the walk was great - so many nice views and the roaring river often near by.

Lots and lots of water is the theme this year! One fun thing we discovered was that if you go out on the rock just past the "don't go any further sign" - the mist from the falls lowers the temperatureLue lisää

We drove down to Sherman Tree but put our heads together and decided it was late enough and we could come back in the morning. It was a good group decision. We slept at Dorst (which we barely saw) andLue lisää

We woke up early to try and time a road closure issue - but that ended up being no big deal. Still, the kids were great about packing up fast and waiting to eat breakfast until after we arrived at ourLue lisää

It's a downhill walk of about half a mile to the tree. So many beautiful trees! The big stone pattern is the footprint of the Sherman Tree. It is the biggest tree in the world!
