Hidden Falls Trail

We had an open Saturday in early June and decided to take the kids up to a local hiking trail called Hidden Falls. Mark had the brilliant idea of biking in with our bikes and then ditching the bikes to walk the rest of the trail to the falls. Let's just say we should have just walked the whole thing and enjoyed the beautiful hike that it was!! It was a little too difficult to ride bikes on for inexperienced mountain bikers and most of the way in was downhill, which means that the whole way out was uphill...with our bikes for a good mile and a half...with four kids and a bike trailer. It was a beautiful trail and the water and falls were super fun to play in while it lasted and while we ate our picnic lunch.(see all the pics below!)... Little did I know the walk back out with our bikes would be so painful and the whining and tears came flowing from just about every one of our kids! AHH!!! We will be sure to just walk it next time!
