Horsetail and Triple Falls

We love to hike and decided to take Eric up Horsetail Falls. It was such a beautiful day and Eric loved looking at the trees and waterfalls.

Eric was eyeing Renn's plate so he gave him a taste. He loved the brussel sprouts!

West Coast Trail

Here are our West Coast Trail pictures. We were there July 22-27, 2007 and we hiked 70 km (50 miles) along the coast of Vancouver Island through the forest and on the beach. It was so beautiful and an amazing adventure!
