Howdy Rowdy! Random Stuff about My Family

Welcome back!

On August 14th, 2008 we hiked “The Subway” with some friends.  Our guides, the Paxmans, had hiked it once before and talked us into going with them.  I had high expectations for the hike and was totally blown away.  It is the most incredble hike I’ve been on and the formations and scenery are incredible.  It is a strenuous all-day hike that took us about 10 hours to complete (including time to stop and play along the way).  Our family group included Natalie, Davis, Thane, Eli, and myself.  The other families that went were Tolds, Paxmans, and Smiths.

 

Here is a link to my GPS track — batteries went dead for a portion of the hike but you get the general idea.  To see a detailed breakdown of the GPS log click the image below.

Today we hiked to Timp Cave with some of Natalie’s family who were visiting from Arizona. John & Allison Davis, along with their kids, hiked to the cave with us. The weather was pretty hot but probably wasn’t that bad for our guests who are used to that Arizona heat! After the hike we met Ken and Linda, Natalie’s parents, and had a picnic lunch at a nearby park in the canyon.
