Winter Adventuring!

The only thing that our winter has been lacking thus far has been... not surprisingly... SNOW!  So we set out to find some and found ourselves at a familiar favorite destination.  Sahalie and Koosah Falls were just beautiful in their snow glow.  The water was glacier blue and the spray from the falls made sweet little rainbows when the sun peaked out.  The crisp mountain air, the crunch of the snow beneath our feet and the pounding roar of the wild McKenzie River invigorated our spirits and chased away any trace of the winter blues!

My little snow bunny!  Norah did really great!  
This was a tough hike for someone with such little legs!

Fun family shot!

This one may end up on the mantle!

The McKenzie was just raging!

Love this!

The head of Koosah Falls... a long way down!

Someone is starting to smile for pictures!

Koosah Falls.  Beautiful.   Just beautiful.

Norah flirts with a slippery slope!

Magical Mystery Land!

Carmen Reservoir, where the adventure began and ended!

Norah got a kick out of the geese walking on the ice

Feeling so really nice after a healthy dose of fresh air!
