Beacon Rock

Jonathon, Cosmo, and I hiked up Beacon Rock last month and it was awesome!


Beacon Rock is the center of an old volcano.
Lewis and Clark called it "Beaten Rock" and then changed it to  "Beacon Rock" later on.
Pretty cool hike- just one mile up!  
So gorgeous

Cosmo found a little looking spot just his size!







At the top! (phew!)
So cute. And 'glowing' with his cute sweat beads. 
Wahoo!

             Heading back down

We went at about 8:30 at night so it was starting to get dark by the time we headed back to the car


 The ONLY bad thing about this hike was that apparently you need a "Discover Pass" to park there so we came back to a $99 ticket on our car  :( - that was disappointing. Oh well!  It was a fun night!

So pretty! I love that you guys are discovering all the fun places around you. Stinks about the $99 ticket. :(
