Mat, the boys and I joined our friend Paul, his son Jackson, father, brother, and nephew on an overnight Father's Day weekend backpacking trip up to Jenny Lake near Idaho City. We started our hike in late afternoon, and hiked 3.5 miles to camp in a nice meadow along the river. The boys amazingly still had enough energy to play in the snow and on the rocks around our camp for hours. The next morning we hiked a mile up the trail in the snow to Jenny Lake and enjoyed the view for a while before making the 5.5 mile trek back to our car. Everyone had a great time. Caulder and Kessler were amazing hikers with the exception of the last 1/2 mile where we had a minor breakdown. We treated ourselves after the big hike with milkshakes from Dairy Queen.
