August 2021

Woodford Family backpacking trip to Red Castle!
First stop, China Meadows Campground to meet up, then start hiking first thing in the morning!  
Jon and Steve
This was Lila's first backpacking trip!  It was cold and rainy, but she handled everything like a champ!
Lila and Jane



















Almost there!




Waiting for everyone to catch up and find our camping spot!


Upper Lake










We weren't allowed to have campfires because it was such a dry season.  Total bummer because it was FREEZING!  Frost on the ground every morning.  Each night we went to bed after the sun went down and watched movies on my phone because it was too cold to stay up. 





Our little camp!



Lower Lake











Fun to get in the water, but COLD! I got the worst sunburn of my life on my face on this trip!




Fish courtesy of Ryan and his friend!
















All the fish heads and guts
