Last snowshoe trip of the season

With warmer weather here the mountains are loosing their snow pretty quickly.  We decided to head up today to get one more snowshoe adventure in before the snow is gone.  It was a beautiful day, sunny with a temp of about 40 degrees at the top of the mountain.  We decided to use the backpack this time for Emily which worked out well.  The snow was a bit slippery and crunchy from the melting and refreezing.  We hiked about 2 miles in to an overlook with amazing views and hung out there for a little while.  The birds must have been hungry, they were all over us while the kids were eating their snack and of course sharing with them.  The came onto John and Mac's legs and boots to get snacks!  The kids did great, Mac didn't complain once.  It was a fantastic day!
