While I was away helping my aunt pack up her kitchen for a remodel, M took the girls to Kentucky Falls for their first backpack camping trip. They hiked in about three miles and found a place to set up their tent.They each had their own backpack. The girls packs were pretty light, M carried the bulk of the items needed.
Here is Upper Kentucky Falls.
Hiking along the trail.
Lower Kentucky Falls.
North Fork Smith River Falls.
I love this picture M took of North Fork Falls and Smith River.
K lazing in a tree reading her kindle. She looks just like M.
Their tent snugged in between the two falls. It is a two man tent but
they were all able to fit in it.They slept head to toe.
Roasting marshmallows.
They also ate Mountain House meals and loved them.
North Fork and Lower Kentucky Falls.
The girls had a great time and only got a little tired when hiking in and out. At one point M had to carry L's backpack for her because it got too heavy. They were well behaved and M had a good time with them. I think this may be the beginning of many backpacking trips for our family.
