Scenes from a Weekend Hike

Anyway, Ben and I were invited to chaperone a church youth group hike. Per usual, we decided the morning of that we would do it and threw a few snacks, the camelbak, some Energy Bits, and clothes in the back of my car. After church, we picked up some subs to eat for a quick lunch.
We were told the hike would be pretty easy… this was only half-true. The first three-quarters of a mile is flat… the rest is a nice little incline, the whole way up.
In spite of the steep climb, it was totally worth it. Interested in doing the hike?

Catamount Mountain, August 2013
Worth it.
Perfect Day.
Anyway, it turned out to be a great day for a hike and I am so glad we decided to go. This is definitely one of the harder hikes I have done, especially once we got closer to the top, but I felt good.
Hiking, yes or no? Favorite outdoor activity? Are you a last-minute person like me or a planner?
I’d be out there everyday if I could!
I know… there is just something about being on top of a mountain!
