A fun hike at Lake Tahoe

We went to Tahoe with some friends last week and took the kids hiking up Mt. Judah / Donner Peak. It was an awesome hike!

The wildflowers were in full bloom,

the terrain was beautiful,

the kids had a blast (this is a picture of them heading off the trail to check out a patch of snow on the ground),

and the view from the top of Mt. Judah was GORGEOUS!

It ended up being about a six mile hike; we were impressed with how well the kids did (they are all eleven years old or younger). If you ever go to Donner / Tahoe and are looking for a fun hike, I highly recommend this one. :)
