Ben had his first of many backpacking trips at the beginning of the summer with his dad, brother, and brother-in-law. He was so excited for this trip and he wasn't disappointed. He had been gathering his gear for weeks beforehand. He officially LOVES backpacking!
On this trip, they hiked Parsons Trail - which is about an hour and half north of us, near Cottonwood, Arizona.
He said the best part was the water that they could swim in and filter for their water needs as well...
Some cliff jumping...
The whole backpacking crew!













Backpacking never fails to lift a person out of the daily grind.
ReplyDeleteEveryone seems to have some nice gear too.
