SHT: Britton Peak to Caribou Trail
We teamed up with Liz, Ryan, and Tino to celebrate Crimmy’s second birthday on the SHT! It was a scorcher, but the route was packed with gorgeous views, campsites all to ourselves, and lots of swimming opportunities.
SHT: Cascade River State Park to Judge Magney State Park
We clocked in our longest section hike on the SHT yet - 40 miles in the backcountry exploring one of our favorite places ever!
SHT: Crosby-Manitou State Park to Lake County 7
We went back to the SHT again last weekend for Crimson’s first birthday and explored Egge and Sonju Lakes! We upped our mileage and our little hiking dog did wonderfully. It was a beautiful hike cut short by some rain on Sunday, but well worth the trip!
SHT: Cascade River State Park to Caribou Trail
Crimson’s SHT debut is in the books! It was a great family weekend hiking through the woods with some beautiful views and an awesome campsite right on a creek!
SHT: Dyer’s Creek to Britton Peak Flip-Flop Hike
Ashley took off for a girls backpacking trip on the SHT with Laura over the weekend - an adventure filled with a late-night hike in, (a few) wrong turns, some pesky bugs, and amazing views of Lake Superior, Temperance and Cross Rivers, and some great inland overlooks!
