We set out on our adventure later in morning on Saturday. It by the way takes us at least 2 hours to get out of the house. No matter where we are going. We headed to Gridwood, AK to check out this hand tram that everyone raves about. It was about a mile into the woods and you hit this huge river about 100 feet below. In order to jump from one cliff to the next you have to hop into a little hand tram and pull yourself across. It is a lot harder then it looks. My dad and Tylor ended up pulling quite a few people across. It was beautiful and a little scarry. I think I talked about my new found fear with the ferris wheel. There is something about being super high in the air with my little children that really makes me anxious. Don't get me wrong it was super fun!
Here is little Kian Bear keeping an eye on his Momma!
Me and my little buddy on the hiking trail
It was a busy place and there were tons of people on both sides waiting to get across, so the only picture I have is of Tylor pulling himself across!
This is the view from inside the basket looking down and the river below. It's a LONG way down! A little freaky if you ask me!!
Here we are halfway across looking back at Tylor who is pulling us across!!
This is the view from the middle of the hand tram. Super high!
Aren't they just the happy bunch!!
Paxton wanted to be carried on the way back. He just didn't want to be strapped in. Poor Tylor!
It was a lot of fun and a great way to spend some time together. We are glad that my Dad is here and look forward to spending more time together. I forgot to upload the pictures I took of the gorge. Ill have to do it later!!
