Big through hikes are on our agenda when the boys get older (or at least are hiking by themselves and not riding on my back;)<br /><br />It's so fun to start thinking about it, though!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17177478757331772420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823898594499538913.post-51088782232799342122010-12-19T16:05:43.226-08:002010-12-19T16:05:43.226-08:00AinP ~ It is a bit dependent on exactly when the m...AinP ~ It is a bit dependent on exactly when the move happens. There appears to be a window between the last couple weeks in January and the beginning of February (when dance classes start again). We are hoping to be moved by then. The weather begins to let up around there too. There is still some snow on the ground in a couple places, but less pouring rain. If we hike East (normally it is hiked West) then we start in the rainshadow and can hike the rainy side even later when the rains will hopefully have died down even more.<br /><br />Mr. H ~ The pets thing through me for a loop as well. We wanted to go to the Rockies over Spring break, but they don't allow dogs AT ALL. Guadie doesn't play well with others. We are her people and no one else. Rockies were out. The Olympics have areas where dogs can be either. There are sections of this that only allow her to be on a leash. There is also another point along Eagle Creek where many dogs have slid down the side of the exposed trail this time of year (muddy as all get out) so we are going to have to rope her up (and The Barracuda) and anchor ourselves off. She isn't the most cautious. We've already had to fish her out of a river. Jules might just wind up bringing her out when he comes for weekend hikes.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04249655831923837855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823898594499538913.post-38632655042501556862010-12-19T08:42:42.897-08:002010-12-19T08:42:42.897-08:00I'm surprised to read about the "no pets&...I'm surprised to read about the "no pets" restrictions and will have to keep that in mind. We have never run into this before but mostly hike in northern Idaho. I can't wait to here how the boy does. This will be a nice challenge for him.Mr. H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576034751522467377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823898594499538913.post-59726237080332320542010-12-19T05:04:40.689-08:002010-12-19T05:04:40.689-08:00Hey, sounds like a fun trip.
