Monarch Lake

On day 2 of our camping trip, we took a little hike to Monarch Lake. We only made it about a mile one side and back, but that was 2 miles of Claire walking! Woohoo!
On the way, we saw this "Steam Donkey". The lovely lady ranger told us that people used to use this to help haul trees down the mountain to the lake. After a while though, they decided that since all they were doing was creating rock slides, they would figure out a different way, and abandoned this piece of equipment.
On our way back, we took a break and had our picnic lunch while admiring the lake.
Vivian did great on our camping trip. She seemed to love all the exploring and getting dirty.
