Talapus and Ollalie Lakes

Since the previous family hike to Denny Creek went so well, I figured I would try something a little more complex: a 5-mile round trip to some lakes. This time it was only Theo and myself.

Theo really enjoyed hiking with Tetley and over assorted bridges, of which there were many.

Things went swimmingly (pun intended) so we hiked another half hour up to Ollallie Lake:


The hike down started off great -- Theo was singing a song and basically ran half the way back, but then the tiredness shone through as he started stumbling more and more. Eventually we made it back to the car without needing anyone to carry anyone else, but both Theo and Tetley immediately crashed:
