Taking advantage of the beautiful weather this weekend, after a surprisingly stormy week, we headed up to Mount Laguna for a hike today. Mt. Laguna is at about 6000 ft, and as such gets the majority of San Diego County's snow fall. Given the absurd amount of rain we got this week, we expected there to be some snow, but the warm weekend had caused most of it to melt. However, San Diego children will take whatever snow they can get, and there were many many people up there, trying to get some last minute sledding in on whatever patches of snow they could.
After a couple of false starts, we eventually found the trailhead we were looking for and hiked a 7 mile loop through the woods and meadows. It was great being outdoors, despite the horrible sun burn I ended up with (who expects to get sunburned in February???) and Toutou seemed to enjoy the snow as well, even playing with Adam for a few minutes before remembering that she hates him.
We also had a very successful day of geocaching. Yes, we are dorks like that, but it makes the hike that much more enjoyable if you are working towards a goal. Like a hidden box of crappy toys! Enjoy the picutres.After a couple of false starts, we eventually found the trailhead we were looking for and hiked a 7 mile loop through the woods and meadows.
