So everyone knows we LOVE going to the lake!! The only time we don't love it is on holiday weekends...because it is too dang crowded and too many idiots out there!!! So we decided we would ride the Hiawatha trail in Montana instead. We left early on the morning of Sat. the 4th of July and drove out there. We had heard a lot of good things about it from friends and they were right....IT WAS AWESOME!!! It starts with a 2 mile trail tunnel that you go through that is PITCH BLACK. You have to use a headlamp, flashlight, etc to see your way through it. The temperature drops dramatically in the tunnel also (in the 50's). You ride through beautiful scenery , about 10 tunnels and over seven old railroad trestles. It is about a 16 mile adventure and we had so much fun.
Me and Brynn outside the 2 mile pitch black tunnel.
Adam on the bike and Brynn in the trailer.....taking a break to enjoy the scenery!!
More scenery....you can see one of the railroad trestles in the center of the picture (in the valley)
Brynn and I ready to start the adventure!
Adam ready to go...its getting hot already.
Brynn being entertained with a cup while Adam and I get the bikes ready to go. Yes she is chewing on the styrofoam...but we got it out before she actually ate any!!!

I love that trail! Easy going and beautiful. Does Adam often ride without a seat? :P
So fun! I wish we were closer so we could do some of that stuff with you guys! How did Bryn do in the dark tunnels?
That sounds really fun and scary, was Bryn ok with it all?
Brynn was great on the trip!! She actually was asleep by the time we got out of the pitch black tunnel. When she was awake...she just took in all the sights.
I love that last picture..so cute! I have never heard about this..looks like lots of fun!
It's good to know you are having so much fun as a family. I wish we could do that trip someday...before I get old!
