we spent our first day trying to climb the bluffs seen in the picture below. we'd climbed the bluffs before...matthew and i as kids, dad and mom-who knows how many times, even katie--mom was pregnant with her on one of her journeys up the bluff-side...and we all had the same memory of it being a fairly easy climb-a nice, gently sloping incline straight to the top.
here's katie anxiously anticipating the views from the top...
the bluffs...our goal: the trees at the very top...
here we are making a hasty retreat back DOWN the bluffs...
before we left the boat dock at the lodge, dad's cousin told us there was a very clear path to the top. after looking for mentioned path for almost two hours and after many falls, scrapes, and branches whacking us in the face, we admitted defeat and made our way back down to our boat.
