We had a GREAT visit with Emily and Jonathan earlier this summer and wanted to share a few photos from a hike we did with them in Olympia National Park.
Emily is a long-time friend of Schaefer's beginning at their time at GCSU. She and Jonathan made a stop to visit us in Olympia after they finished their Alaskan cruise! (Jealous comments previously written were edited by the chief editing officer...)
Emily and Jonathan- We chose a hike that was new to us and we wanted to keep it short (ish). Little did we know Mt. Walker was short.... but also a quite steep hike. Worth the views though.
All of us at the top celebrating our victory over Mt. Walker. (hard fought as evidenced by the hidiously sweaty man previously pictured).
Downtown Seattle from across the Sound. If you look closely you can see the space needle to the left.
Back down to the finish. Coming down was tough. I would have preferred a sled and a helmet to make my way down the steep ramps. Glad we did it, as you can see the views are fantastic. Great company too! Thanks for coming to see us Emily and Jonathan! We had a great time with you and it means a lot to have people visit us up here in the NW.
Wow those views were breathtaking!!!! I'm glad you guys didn't take Matt and I on that hike. We would've collapsed.
