Hiking the Crest Trail in the Sandia Mountains

Such good hikers!

Taking a much needed break!


Went went up the Tram today to Sandia Peak, a little shy of 11,000 feet. The kids are getting to be better and better hikers and they did such a great job hiking for two hours on the Crest Trail. There was always something exciting for them to see, from an injured bird to fossil imprints in the rocks all around us. The views are amazing and the air was fabulous! We celebrated with lunch at the Highpoint Restaurant on top of the Peak.
