Surprise Lake

We completed our October camping over the weekend. Ten down, only TWO more to go!!!

Our destination this month was Surprise Lake in the Skykomish area. We had to wait until after soccer games were done for the weekend before we could head out. So we didn't start hiking until almost 5 pm. The hike itself was pretty good, with the trail being well maintained. We had to hike half of it in the dark. Luckily we were able to find a camp spot without any issues. We set up camp fairly quickly. Boys were so exhausted that they fell asleep, and we had to wake them up to eat dinner. During the night we all slept great and kept warm. The morning we made a quick breakfast before packing up camp. Boys kept themselves busy feeding the birds (it started with only one bird around, then before we knew it two more came). The hike out was easy and painless. And the best part about the entire hike? NO RAIN!!! It was great!!!! This was by far our best (and my favorite) hike.
