Seven Falls

On Saturday all the girls and Porter went to Seven Falls in Colorado Springs for the morning. It is a beautiful place with lots and lots of stairs and, of course, seven waterfalls. When we first arrived, we watched some Native American dancing and then we tackled the climb.

Here are the girls climbing up the first 224 steps to get to the top.

Once at the top we stopped for awhile to rest. The girls loved the hiking on the natural paths.

They also really enjoyed climbing on the big rocks and checking out the streams.

Here is a view from the top of the other set of steps (194). Abby climbed both set of stairs all by herself and didn't complain or get scared once. She is getting to be such a big girl. Lissie, on the other hand, got Granny to carry her up many of the stairs. That girl is no dummy!

We had a wonderful morning and even got to have a picnic lunch after all our hiking. Its awesome to live in such a great outdoorsy place.
