X-Country Ski Overnighter

We decided to cross country ski up to a cabin in the Scout Mountain area last night where we spent the night. It was about 3 miles to the cabin and due to a storm and starting after sunset, it took us 2 hours to ski in. Anson enjoyed the trip bundled up in our baby backpack (which has a storm hood that is not shown in any of the pictures below). To keep him warm we stuck hand warmers in the feet of his snow suit and he slept warm and compfortably the entire way there. It was a blast.

The cabin had propane lighting and no plumbing, the only heat was from the fire place so we had to wake up in the night to keep warm. It was a small and primitive cabin, but that just made the experience more fun. It's nice to be able to go out and enjoy recreating as a family. And really fun to see Anson enjoying being with us for the adventure.

Just enjoying our time as a family.

All of us are happy, except James, he's crazy.
