Camping with Nora!

This past weekend I took Nora up to Charlton Lake, in the cascades, east of Eugene. She has wanted to camping with “just Dad” for a while now so we finally made the time and did it. A fun time was had by all, of course. She is a very competent camper as you’ll see from the images below. Enjoy –

Some weekend hikes

 Last Saturday, Nora and I hiked up Spencer’s Butte here in town, close to our house. She did a great job at the all uphill one mile hike, too.

The next day, Jonah and I hiked up Mt. Pisgah, a 1.5 mile hike with a 1000 foot elevation gain. He also did well and enjoyed snacks and some silly photos once we arrived at the top.

Silver Falls State Park hike

Today we went up to Silver Falls State Park, just east of Salem, Oregon. We did a relatively short 3 mile hike, but went down and up about 700 feet altogether. Nora and Jonah did a great job hiking, even though it was very cold the whole time. Afterwards we did our obligatory stop for post-hike ice cream. Fun was certainly had by all. Here are some photos of our day:
