Hiking Scar Face-13th of March 2010

The last time I hiked Scar Face was when Dawn was in 3rd grade. I ran, yes,ran all the way to the top with the students. So why not take a small group of the children and grand children?

It went like this....
We started walking, and walking, and walking...

and walking and walking,
with lost of rest stops and pulling to the side to let people and pets by.

Walking with more resting, lots of water, more resting,
and then the toting began. A little here a little there.
The views were great it was not too hot or too cold.
Not too steep, or too flat,

Finally we reached the top. Two hours later.
We had snacks and more water.
Watched the squirrls and other wild life.

Then we started down the hill.

Poor Rigdon had had enough.
Emilee carried him all the way down.
He napped.
Devin though would walk awhile and then I would put him on my shoulders for awhile.
There was some conversation about how far and when, but not much.

All in all I had a good time and I hope they all did.
I did look at the map at the bottom.
We traveled 1.6 miles up and 1.6 miles down.
The average time it should take a group is 2 hours,
we did it in 4.
I would recommend that the age limit on this one is 4 years old,
unless you plan on toting small people.
Also long pants for everyone to avoid scraped knees.
I love my grand kids and my children,
they would have made great pioneers.
