Big Weekend
Joey and I just got back from a snowshoe backpacking adventure. We snowshoed 2 miles to a primitive forest service cabin and spent the night. It was pretty cold but we kept the fire going all night so we were cozy inside. We did a lot of sledding, exploring, reading, playing cards, chopping wood and snow fort building. We drove back through Leavenworth, had some lunch and did some sledding in town.
The same weekend, Meg took Jess and 2 of his friends to the Great Wolf Lodge for his 13th birthday. They had a great time and we are going to have to find a way for the whole family to go there.

Wallace Falls and flood pics
I had the day off so I decided to be a storm chaser. I hiked up to Wallace falls and saw the incredible amount of water from the recent rains. It was about a 6 mile hike up around 1500 feet. I wanted to go further up to Wallace Lake but I had to get back to take Jess to the dentist. It was also getting a little too snowy up at the top.
On the way home I drove through Sultan and took some pics of the Sultan River and the Skykomish river flooding Sultan. I also saw the Snoqualmie River taking over a lot of the forest.
