The Wright camping trip was at Red Fish Lake this year near the breathtaking Sawtooth Mountains in Stanley, Idaho. This is a picture of the leaving-at-5-a.m. group at Stanley Lake. We had a fantastic group camp site where we had the entire site to ourselves (we even had our own dumpster and our own outhouse) complete with a stream just past the fence and down the hill. Great spot.
We spent a day at Red Fish Lake playing in the water and building sand castles. The next day most of the group rafted (we had two large rafts) and kayaked down Swirly Canyon. Griffin bravely and without hesitation jumped into the very cold river to Aunt Molly, the river guide, Jane was happy as long as she didn't get splashed, Anna was glad to ride in the same raft as her cousins, Zachary had his first experience kayaking down a river (and loved it!), and Jeremy floated down in the ducky. Fun!
We went on a long hike in search of a waterfall (this is the group having a snack and water break) and we were able to see it at a distance.
We missed the cousins who weren't there, but so enjoyed spending time with those who were able to come.
