Carbon Canyon Nature Trail

This past Saturday we headed out to Carbon Canyon Park. This time we decided to hike the 1-mile nature trail that ends in a beautiful 10-acre grove of Coastal Redwood trees.

Mercy and Joshua pose at the trail-head.

Joshua was our fearless leader.

Here is Mercy posing next to a baby Redwood tree.
The trail was an easy one, mostly level and straight. Mercy found lots of sticks along the way that she called "Swords of Truth." Usually when we take the children to a park, I like to bring a brown paper bag for each of them. In it they put the "treasure" that they find - interesting rocks, pinecones, flowers, etc..
After the hike we had a picnic and relaxed. It was another beautiful day at the park.
