This was our view while we were driving through most of Montana. Maddie took this unique photo. Once we … Continue reading Devil’s Tower

My sister took us out to one of her favourite hiking trails in East Sooke. We did a shortened version due to time constraints. Took a break at this beach for a snack. The hike had a little bit of everything.  Forest, coastline and oh yeah…rock climbing! The trails were a lot of fun. Maddie … Continue reading East Sooke Hike

We decided to do some boon docking near Lake Havasu at a place called “Craggy Wash”. Beautiful hidden valley with hills surrounding us. So far, the best boon docking to date. There were five peaks surrounding our camping spot and we climbed all five of them during our 3 day stay. Here is a view … Continue reading Lake Havasu

On our way up North, we decided to take a side trip to see the Grand Canyon by rail. The train ride took about 2 1/2 hours from Williams, Arizona. We decided to go old school and take the 1923 Pullman Car to the canyon. We could have taken a 1950’s car with a luxury … Continue reading Grand Canyon

On the way to the Grand Canyon, we stopped at the Petrified Forest National Park. These trees are 50-200 million years old.   The petrified trees look like precious gems when they are shining in the sun. As the trees died they were covered in sediment, then soaked up the water and silica from volcanic … Continue reading Petrified Forest National Park
