Hiking in the Angeles National Forest

We were invited to go on a hike with some of Jaime's co-workers in late January.  It was up in the Angeles National Forest, which is only about an hour from our house (with no traffic).  We decided to go and try out the new carrier that we picked up for Tiago.  It really worked out well, except for those times when we needed to duck under tree branches, and once or twice when we slid down inclines.  Overall we had a great time, and Tiago seemed to enjoy his time riding in the backpack eating crackers.  Living in the middle of such a big city, it's easy to forget how close we are to the great outdoors.  We need to do more of this stuff in 2013!

 Jaime with the backpack - it was amazingly comfortable!

 Snow in the mountains.

 Biggest pine cone EVER!

 Erin's turn to carry Tiago.

 Moving right along.


We made it!!!

So tired - from all the backpack riding...
