I am speechless all the park has to offer.  There are so many trees and snow in the mountains!  The air is crisp and got down to 50 degrees at one summit!

Our plan for the day is to drive Old Falls Road up to the Alpine Visitor Center and it takes us nearly half the day!  There are so many stops and trails and snow runoff and rivers ... so much to see and do.  We attempt a 2 mile one way hike to Chaupin Summit but James is still not 100% and Trevor starts showing the first signs of altitude sickness...bummer!  We make our own summit - TEDD (Trevor, Evan, Donna and Dad!)  and then head down.  It was still a great time and the boys have a snowball fight!
