Memorial Day Hike: Castlewood Canyon State Park

 Our Memorial Day outing was in beautiful Castlewood Canyon, just 30 minutes from our house:-)  If you look really hard, you can see Pikes Peak in the background.

 What an adventure--the boys LOVED all the boulders.

 They made for great rock climbing!

Jacob showing off his skills...he scaled this rock 5 times. 

There was an injury in the canyon....so we got to see the equipment firefighters use for mountain rescues (think orange rescue sled mounted on a single wheel with four handles for four firefighters).  I'm thankful we weren't the ones being rescued!!
