Hiking up Badger Mountain (4 weeks postpartum)

     On Saturday, April 30th we decided to hike Badger Mountain.  The mountain is just a few minutes away from our house, and has three different trails.  We hiked up the Canyon Trail which is 1.3 miles one way.

 Owen will definitely not remember this trip as he was asleep.

     It was a good hike that provided some much needed exercise for us.  This is a hike we'll do from time to time to get some exercise and enjoy the sun and the view!
