Survivor Mud Run:
Prerace...
Nearing the end of the race. Have I ever told anyone how much I hate getting dirty. This was like facing one of my worst fears. Except for the fact that I signed up willingly. Didn't really think I'd get THIS muddy...
Post race. We all made it! Two people from the group lost shoes fairly early on during the race. Kudos to them for making it through. There was some rough terrain out there!
Yup. We're tough :)
Next, on to some biking on San Juan Island. No shoes were lost on this trip. We took the ferry to San Juan Island with our bikes, and biked around the entire island. So much fun, but actually a lot harder than we all anticipated. 30 miles didn't seem so long, but with the hills and mountain bikes, it made for a more difficult journey. Epic and awesome, nonetheless.
The crew after our lunch break in Roche Harbor.
At the sculpture park near Roche Harbor. And who's in the artwork, but us ourselves!
Such pretty scenery.
Sculpture park again.
Lime Kiln State Park
Alpaca farm! I was pretty excited about this having just been to Peru.
Up next: hike to Lake Serene...
Beautiful hike, lots of bugs, lots of fun :)
OK, and now on to our backpacking trip to Lake Minotaur. This was a blast. I had tons of fun, and I think everyone else did too. Beautiful views, scenery, and of course, lots of adventure!
We started our hike at dusk, so we got in after dark. Luckily for us it was a clear night with a full "blue" moon.
Don't want bears getting to our food!
Good morning. Props to Mariana for having an awesome tent that was lightweight and perfect for backpacking.
It was cold, OK?
Some day hiking.
Beautiful
Day hiking adventures. Dan almost lost a leg and got bowled over by a boulder, but survived to tell the tale. Thank goodness.
Someday, I hope to jump as awesome as Mariana.
The end of the hike! Super steep, but super fun!
