Hiking

For Labor Day weekend we went hiking! We were thinking a nice easy hike around Sylvan Lake sounded like fun so we headed up to Custer State Park. When we got there a few people in our group thought that the Sunday Gulch trail sounded interesting and it was only 2.8 miles, so do-able, right? Well, we all went along so no one was left out and I think maybe the girls and I should have just played on the beach! When the map said Strenous, they were not joking! But, we all made it home, safe and sound. A few in our party waited by the switchbacks on the Needles Highway and we came back and picked them up. We all had a good time even though it was a bit more than we bargained for. The scenery was awesome! Here are a few pictures from our hike!
