On December 29th Miranda, Jared, Malia, Cory, Danika, Carson and I decided we'd snowshoe up Dry Canyon. (About an 8 minute drive from the house.) As the pictures attest, a good time was had by all.
This picture was taken at the trailhead.
We've been on the trail for 3 minutes...Malia's always felt that it's never to soon for a little break when trekking through the woods.
It's now been 7 minutes 32 Seconds and Malia has some company...
A little break for all.
The man and the mountain.
We're making progress...the view looking behind us.
Cory and Malia take a breather.
The snow was very deep here in this creek bed. We then headed straight up the mountain. I however thought I'd found a shortcut. An hour later I met up with the gang. The shortcut had me taking one step up and sliding back almost the same distance. Yep, I was feeling all of my 49 years.
The group debates the best route up.
Once at the top I agree to a photo opp but admittedly do a poor job of concealing my utter fatigue.
I must say, however that the view was well worth the effort!
Carson went yet higher and then flew down, half jumping, half sliding on his fanny. Good times!
Cory strikes a stunning pose.
The charming couple.
Jared ponders the wonders of the universe.
Miranda ponders her handsome husband.
The rest of us ponder the mysteries of Malia.
Danika seems to favor the prone position.
Bon Appetite!
Jared can't resist the temptation for a little loving shove.
Cory takes a final picture as the rest of us pile in the car. A great time was had by all!
