Adams Canyon

We have been on a few hikes this summer. Thomas and I checked out Adams Canyon (I remember going there as a teen-ager, but I don't remember it how it looks now?) We thought we would take the kids on a bunch of hikes this summer and hopefully by the end of the season have them hike Adams Canyon.
We tried out a hike two weekends ago, and it was harder then this one, so we went for it! The first part of the hike is hard. Its in sand and pretty steep. Kinley had a hard time during this part. I didn't think she was going to make it, but once we were out of the sand, she did fantastic!
We took a lot of breaks and had lunch half-way up. The kids really were troopers!! I thought for sure some spots would have been too hard.

The view at the top is worth the hike! They loved seeing the waterfall. We had to put on our water shoes and cross the river, if you don't, you cant see the waterfall!

I love hiking Adams Canyon! I wish I had time to go hiking right now. I bet both my boys would do it too.

Looks like a lot of fun for your cute little family!
I can't wait until our kids are old enough to endure a hike.
