Hike to the B!

Quincy woke up with a wild hair one Saturday morning. He got us all in the car and we headed to Old Henderson to hike the B on the mountain (or should I say hill?). We had tried to find the road to get there one night but couldn't ever find it. Then after looking on Google Earth Quincy had a plan. It turned out that no road went directly there so we had to take a 2 mile walk to get there. 

This is a before shot:

Jensen took off as he always does on hikes. He has so much energy and wants to be in the lead. He fell while he was trying to get ahead of Lucy so he held onto his shorts like this for most of the hike. And of course still ate his apple while walking. 

Right before getting to the B is a big wash that you had to cross. Luckily, it was dry as can be that morning. The last little path to the B was pretty steep but the kids did it without a problem. 

Finally we got to the B without whining but we did feel a few raindrops. 

Duncan had fallen asleep on the last little bit but woke up happy to see that we had made our destination. 

Selfies before heading back.

I wish I could say there wasn't whining on the way back but the kids walked it all by themselves. We even got more raindrops on the way back but it was refreshing since we know the weather will be hot soon enough to even think about hiking here in Vegas. 

After shot. 

The kids were tired. It turned out to be a great way to release some energy for the kids and wear them out. It didn't last long though.
