Bear Brook State Park

We've started exploring the State Parks around our house... this particular weekend we went to Bear Brook State Park to explore the trails and maybe even find said "brook"! We ventured off toward the top of Catamount Hill.

Lovely photo right?!  This is the way we were SUPPOSED to go to (grrr!) instead we followed a way we believed to be a "shortcut", it was a shortcut all right.. straight to the bottom again. 
Unfortunately Cole and the compass were not helpful in this particular situation :) So much for our fun family hike! By the time we figured out our mistake the two littler kids were not so excited to start up the hill again.  So instead we walked back to where we started and had a picnic lunch at the playground and explored the beach area.


Only a little bit of foliage around there.




Cora's hair gets super-charged down these plastic slides!

Fun park! We'll have to check it out again in the summer.. and maybe next time we'll actually get to see the top of that hill!
