Today we travelled an hour and a half north to Olallie State Park in North Bend to hike the Twin Falls trail. It was a challenging 3 mile hike with several big hills & rocky terrain. But the views of the falls were definitely worth all the effort. We even managed to see several chipmunks. Definitely a successful adventure!

| Gabby at the beginning waiting for the rest of us to use the restroom. Unfortunately the facilities were no better than a hole in the ground. Another reason I am not much of a nature girl. |
 |
| Views of the Snoqualmie River. It was so beautiful! |
 |
| Some smaller falls down river. |
 |
| Self portrait... Gabby is always in the lead because she is in the best shape. Those dance classes have paid off! |
 |
| Corey inside an old tree. The trail was in an old growth forest and we saw many trees with trunks large enough to drive through. |
 |
| Really? |

| The falls! |

| On the way back the girls spent some time playing on the river rocks. |
 |
| Gabby was intent on going across that downed tree to get to the "island" in the middle of the river. |
 |
| There she goes... |
 |
| still going.... |
 |
| She managed to stay out of the water. |
 |
| Victory! |
 |
| Corey's turn..... |

That is a huge tree that Corey was standing in! I can't believe they made it across that downed tree. They are much braver than I.
