Snow Lake Hike Photos

The Snow Lake Hike is one of the most popular hikes to do in the Seattle area.  My son and I went on Wednesday morning, and by the time we left the lake to head back down (2:30ish), there were tons of people coming to the lake.  It’s about 7 miles round trip, rocky, but moderately easy with the elevation…

Be Led by Joy

Life is short, make it count.  Be led by what brings you joy. Spending a little time in nature is a must for me every week.  I don’t even know how many times I have parked at this mini parking lot close to my house (to take a walk through one of my dream neighborhoods) and…

Denny Creek Trail Photos

We spent yesterday (National Get Outdoors Day) up at the Denny Creek Trail. It’s a great hike for all ages. Here’s some photos of our adventure… Did you get a chance to get outside yesterday? No worries, you still have today! 🙂

Electric Run Fun Photos

The Electric Run came to Seattle (well, actually Puyallup) last night. This is my second time doing this fun run – so fun!  Who doesn’t want to run to music and neon lights?!  It’s not a timed event, it’s all about having a good time. You can run, skip, walk, dance – whatever floats your boat. Check it out… Last time…

Talus Rock Trail at Tiger Mountain

I was doing a TrailFit Hike with a client at Tiger Mountain and we stumbled upon the Talus Rock Trail (from the Tiger #3 Trail) – what a super cool surprise! I try to only take a couple shots when I’m with a client, but I just couldn’t help myself.  Sorry, Corky!!   The trailhead…

Family Time Photos: Mountain Biking Bellingham 

If you are looking for some family time adventure, you can go to Bellingham (Galbraith Mountain) and mountain bike the Bunny Trails, Dog Patch, and Lost Giants Trails. Those trails are a little more beginner/family friendly. It is sad that they clear-cut all those trees, but at least they were nice enough to keep the…

Spring Break!

This shot above was from our family bike ride this week from the Snoqualmie Valley Trail to Rattlesnake Lake (my husband is pointing to the people up on Rattlesnake Ledge ). I have more shots from this ride on my Instagram feed. Anyway, we are heading up to Vancouver Island for Spring Break – I can’t believe…

Just for Kids: Bus Trail at Tiger Mountain

Next week is spring break!  If you are planning a stay-cation, then take the kiddos to the Bus Trail at Tiger Mountain off I-90 at exit 20.  It’s flat the entire time and you can loop around to the lake trail  to head back and it’s only about 1.5 miles roundtrip.  You could even take…

Waiting for Blue Sky, Alki

I bailed on my St. Patty’s Day Dash this weekend because of the epic downpour!  I decided to take my trusty umbrella out to Alki (which is a Chinook word meaning “by and by”), and do a long walk instead.  I think it was the smarter choice.  I focused on my surroundings – listening to the…
