We went on a family hike yesterday in the Eldorado National Forest as has been our tradition the last few years. This year, we headed east to Echo Summit to do a hike to Echo Lake. It was a perfect day for it.
The trail we hiked was part of the Pacific Crest Trail and we were passed by quite a few backpackers. It made me want to go backpacking really bad.
The trail was just the right length for Wes who is a great little hiker. Our final destination was Echo Lake. A short side trail goes up to a beautiful view of Lake Tahoe.

We had lunch in the shade near this rock. Gil started climbing on it and Wesley decided he was big enough to do the same. I climbed up as well.
There was a small bridge and Wesley loved it! Every time we go under a freeway overpass he let's us know, "Bidge! Bidge!"

Happy Independence Day!
