Day hike to Henninger Flats March 2013


We started early on what was supposed to be a hot day.  And it's all uphill.



That brown layer . . . must be . . . chocolate air?



Zach and Christopher taking a break



Partway up the 3-mile climb, we all find welcome shade and and rest for our legs



We made it!  The rest of the way is downhill



Stopping for a photo op on a lovely nature trail,
although Chris appears to have a burr in his saddle



On the way back, the boys elected to add another 2 miles to the 6 we'd already hiked



We hiked up to Eaton Falls, and the water sure felt good



Isaias and Emmanuel, tempting fate, and documenting the feat



8 miles later, and ready to avail ourselves of an internal combustion machine
