Night two, Happy Camp, now in Canada. And we were truly happy because we crossed the pass in cloudy weather and found ourselves in beautiful blue skies after crossing the border.

Night three at Bare Loon Lake. It had clouded up but the rain held off until after we got started the next morning. And it poured most of the way to Bennett.
 
@kwc Did you do a TR about this? Would really like to read more, it's a trail I've always thought would be cool to do.

Sorry, you'll all be sick of Scatman after this one. Chronological tent shots from family trips to Yellowstone, all of which are backpacking trips except for two, that were canoe trips. This is a nice thread by the way.

There is one trip with my son to Joseph's Coat Springs and a Fairyland attempt that I apparently didn't take a picture of our tent. I'll have to see if I can find one somewhere. This is a nice thread by the way.

@scatman, I love it! My kids are younger, but I have a similar progression going on a wall in my basement. I can only hope it continues to grow as yours has! Very cool.
 
Love the photos showing how the kids grew. Did you guys pack in the bunch sitting outside the tent at Ribbon Lake or were they visitors? And yikes on the moskies!

They were visitors. They came by to see if we had some extra strength tums, but they went away empty handed. :) I should have sent them your way. The big sock monkey is named Shabby, and the green bear is named Tucci, and I don't remember the other two's names. Age will do that to you you know. :moses: I'll have to ask my daughter the next time a speak with her.
 
@scatman , I love Sheila’s side eye look in the first photo. And thanks for sharing all these family memories!
