We love getting out to the mountains to hike. Not that we go on really intense hikes with these very young children but it is just so great to get out! This hike was up in the mountains above Canmore, called Grassi Lakes. It was a great push for the kids and yet not too hard for them. The main challenge was that we brought our stroller- the double, big wheeled one, but it was still really hard to push up. Thanks so much to Todd for taking the brunt of that work. The kids just adore their uncles! It is so fun for them to get to play with and have all of their uncles attention.
It was the most beautiful of lakes, so bright and green. There was another lake up there that we hiked around as well. That one had an interesting rock wall along one side that was all covered in little holes. There were a few people that were rock climbing up this wall, it was perfect for that with all of these little hand grips. The kids loved to watch them doing this! Also there were some parts with little caves along where the kids could pretend to hide in and play around. It was such a beautiful day and a wonderful hike!!
I love how you post your pictures really big. It makes them more beautiful and dramatic! The colours are spectacular!
