Well, the day of our river hike was finally here. This usually seems to be one of the highlights of our trip. My favorite part of this hike is walking upstream with everyone. Several mentioned they didn't want to hike in the water as far this time, but it is definitely my favorite part. Here is a small group of us making our way upstream to our water hole and waterslide retreat.
This is me and Lindsay. We had the hardest time hiking upstream this year because there were so many beaver dams. We probably had to go around 5 or 6 of them on our way to the water hole.
When I arrived at the water hole, Jaron was already there showing off a couple of snakes he had caught. He was very excited Sara Arnold gave him $10 for catching the snakes and letting them handle and take a bunch of pictures with them.
Here is the view of where we stop each year to hang out and enjoy the water. The water hole has been dammed up more than usual by someone, so there wasn't much of a water slide this year.
Brayden spent the entire time we were there jumping in, getting out and running back up to jump in again.
Here is Natalie jumping in to Dave.
Lidnsay's turn.
Here is Bryce under the little waterfall.
Lindsay tagged along with Saunder the entire way back. Saunder was very sweet to carry Lindsay a lot of the way on her back.
We ended the day at the camp swimming pool. This is a picture of Natalie minutes before she fell asleep. The kids are always exhausted after a full day of swimming.
