Day Trip to Sedona ~ West Fork Trail, Part 2

Since there were so many pictures from this one hike, I thought it would be a good idea to split the post. I just fell in love with this trail, the creek, the excitement of the kids, the rock formations, being surrounded by nature, the exploring...

Next we found this cool place in the shade. It was this little alcove shaped by trees above and rocks on the side of the creek. The rocks were kind of cold and smooth... a great resting spot for Mimi and I as the kids explored. They found minnows and awesome rocks. They were in heaven!

Hayden was the first one to fall in and get really drenched ;)

After our little break on the cool rocks, we headed thru the creek some more. We found an old log laying across the water. Sophie recognized this right away as a balance beam! She told the boys to do "airplane arms! "

It was at this point in the trail that we decided to head back. We had been hiking for quite awhile now, and had to walk back through the creek. With their curiosity, this could take us awhile ;)

Just as we were to get out of the creek onto the dirt trail, the boys wanted to climb the concave wall. Mimi and I gave it a shot, too!

This was such a fun day trip! We started out just after breakfast and got home in time to pick up a pizza for dinner! This day trip was so worth it...such an awesome place to hike! Until next time...
