Stehekin WA, North Cascades


Cute valley bus



Last day, outside the lodge
note: brian's "new" boots he found in the used/lost and found box. He said he would pack himself. He packed: 2 t-shirts and 1 pair of shorts.....nothing else, he's wearing my socks. The other clothes he had were the ones he was wearing when we left. Needless to say he had to go stand outside on the boat ride home cause he smelled like fresh onions


Brian deep in thought about quitting his job and moving to a national park, after about half a bottle of wine:)





Amelia deep in thought about roasting a marshmallow


smores.....



widdling the marshmallow stick





Ben our kayak guide and Amelia...so choppy and windy. We've decided to sell the sailboat and trade up for kayaks, it was awesome. Saw some pictographs, the guide said they were either 800 years old or 8,000 years old...um really, so much for an exact science in the pictograph world







night, night stories in the cabin


















coon lake hike, where we saw the dreaded rattlesnake








about to walk up on a rattlesnake...eiikkk







hide and seek, not too many places to hide in a 13x13 cabin...she couldn't find him though














tent cabins in the back ground













The lodge, dining room. Cedar chips for the floor. We didn't know if the animal head was a deer or an elk. So the guy we asked wondered where we were from. I think he was surprised when we said Idaho and not New York City



























We probably spent 5 hours total on this tire horse swing, amelia loved it














high bridge, stehekin river




































family portait



























first day hike, Turns out hiking with a 3 yar old isn't so fun



















































































Lady express. Ferry boat ride
