This last weekend we took a short (but packed!) trip up
North. We have a group of friends that
set up a large venture to Fossil Creek, a gorgeous mountain spring hike with
waterfalls and cliff jumping!
Frist, on Saturday we met up at our place and carvan’d up to
the Mogollon Rim (or favorite camping destination!). We got up there just in time to catch the
setting sun and set up our tents. One of
the cooler coincidences was the Super Moon that took place while we were
there. The moon was so bright, we barely
needed headlamps to walk around the forest!
The light was stunning looking over the valley below. The next day the moon was just setting as we
got up (around 5:30am) just as the sun was rising too! What an awesome sight!
We set off to catch up with the rest of the hiking group at
the trailhead and began the hike. There
was a couple spots we had to wade through water, but that was the whole point
of the trip! :) We came across some
awesome waterfalls, and areas we could jump off cliff (some about 30’
high!). We spent the entire day there
(almost 9hrs) hiking, jumping, swimming…it was awesome.
Rohan had an absolute blast while we were there, and really
enjoyed the raft someone brought. We
might just have to get him on for the pool this summer! Rohan has been climbing EVERYTHING lately and
he demonstrated how he can climb onto the counters now, pretty effortlessly
too. He even started climbing a small
pine tree when we were camping. He was
so excited to get in the water and play.
Too bad he got so cold, he could only be in the water a short time
before he started shivering. :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
