For FHE this week, we decided to finally try out a nearby trail that we've started up numerous times (it's the same one we take all our guests to see at the end of the Lake Creek drive - the East Lake Creek Trail). It was the perfect evening for it, cool and shady, but with just enough gorgeous golden light to see us through. About two miles in, we found a nice little rocky seat and had our picnic dinner. Then we packed up and hiked back out. All done in a little over a couple hours. Perfect evening with my dishy husband in the mountains.

Rest/eat time: 30 min
