We attempted a big family hike this year and we were successful! Peyton and I made it to Rimrock Lake--12 miles total! She was amazing, did just great the whole time. Maddie & Jim kept going to Rainbow Lake--14 miles round trip. Maddie was determined to go farther than last year. She is an awesome hiker.We had our friends the Kaveneys along for the trip, which made for good peer pressure! Had beautiful weather, lots of raspberries to pick along the way and even saw a couple mountain goats.
