Oh a hiking we will go...

We went on a super cool hike the other day and the kids did awesome!! It was a 1.6 mile loop and the trail was mostly snow packed.  They hiked the whole way!! James was charging ahead breaking the trail and Ellie hung back taking in all the scenery.  They had little markers along the trail with different things about the area either wildlife or plant life.  The kids really enjoyed it and it was a great spot.  It's called Willow Creek Trail at Roxborough State Park.  The rocks reminded me so much of garden of the gods down in Colorado Springs.      


























 We got to see a lot of deer and birds, the deer were totally unafraid and right by the trail.  It was cool to see the kids reaction






































Lots more hikes in our future!!

Thanks so much for sharing, Stacia! I've been on the lookout for good kid friendly hikes! We'll want to check this one out. I'm so proud of your kids for hiking the whole way! Go James and Ellie!
