hiking picutes

here is where our hike took place. up in the rockie mountains. we were in waterton park, it is really pretty up there. can you see the snow still on the mountains. we didn't go up that high so we didn't actually see snow up close but lots of people were telling me that it isn't the norm to have the snow so low this time of year.
start of the trail. silly girls
going up
taking a little break along the trail waiting for the people in back to catch up a litte bit
time for lunch. kay found a rock in the middle of the stream to sit and enjoy here sandwich. so that she could soak her feet in the water too. not that you could keep your feet in for long because it was so cold. being that there was still snow it probably isn't surprising that is was so cold.
i think that the girls stopped at every stream on the way back down the mountain to get thier hats wet. the day got a lot warmer as it went on.

looks like we are heading back up the mountain but this one was actually taken on the way down.

and these were waiting for us at the bottom of the trail. we really wanted to see some kind of wildlife on the trail but nothing showed up but the goats were all hanging out in the parking lot when we got back. i thought that the babies were really cute.
