Heckel's Adventures

Bert hikes on trail just beyond the summit in the Trinities. Ernie swims at Big Rainbow Lake, then appreciates the view from a log.

We hiked into the Trinitie's this weekend. It's a quick trip that isn't as challenging as we would normally look for at this time of summer, but air quality and fire proximity led us to choose this area. The weather was quite warm. The views were great, but hazy.

Larry and the boys go for a spin. We took a wrong turn and found a young male moose, the boys were quiet and we kept our distance. Luckily he looked right at me for a photo!

Ernie's first trip in the canoe went well. He jumped out once to swim a long distance with us. He never quite figured out how we could help him back in without needing to swim to shore after a bit. Oh well. We didn't swamp, and that's the best news! Bert explored on shore mostly, but he did some swimming as well.

Jen summitting at snowyside pass. Much less snow right now than typical for the time of year. Mary hiking up trail. Camp view from Alice Lake.
