Group High Adventure (August 2017)

The "S" in Seattle must stand for summer, because summer is the most amazing time to be in the Pacific Northwest!! And during the summer our family just about lives outdoors; often camping, hiking, or backpacking. 

This particular backpacking trip was with a church youth group. Destination: Tuck and Robin Lakes in the Snoqualmie region.

I'm thinking it was the year for granite, because just like The Enchantments, Tuck and Robin Lakes has lots of it! The description on wta.org says this:

"Hike to a beautiful granite basin housing two sparkling lakes and big views. Explorations abound with nearly a dozen lakes to look down upon or explore around" (https://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/robin-lakes)

Sounds exciting to me:-) ... 

I think this A-mazing group of guys agrees!!


It may not equal The Enchantments in beauty, but I would think it comes awfully close ...






I don't think it was quite as difficult as The Enchantments either, but definitely not an easy hike!!



Mountain goats made an appearance again!


And hanging around camp together was definitely a favorite!!!





Perfect jumping boulder ... look closely if you want to see the boys.


Kevin and James of course made some time for fishing:)


Overall good times yet again with Dad!

And the burger and fries tradition continues ...

I've been meaning to update our blog layout with the new family pictures we had taken in November. But since I'm not going to get around to it anytime too soon, I thought I'd include a couple with this post. Aren't ' they cute! The crazy part, though, is that as much as I LOVE these pictures (thanks to McKenzie Goff), they will already be outdated as of September. Here's why ... Dueck baby #5 Arriving September 24 th 2010
