Battle Creek Trip Numero Dos

Nick and I had our hiking shoes on, a sweater (in case it got cold), and an attitude prepared to have the best family home evening EVER! But we forgot one thing..

...
Elliott!


When we reached Battle Creek Canyon I was Ready to Go! Poor Elliott was thinking, "Oh dear, what have I gotten myself into?!"

(You can always tell when I'm really excited cuz one of my eyes squishes a little...)

Along the way we reached a cave that transformed Elliott into a CaveDog! From then on he was ready to tackle any challenge that crossed our path. (This did, however, become a problem when a huge dog came across our trail and Elliott had no fear!)


There were many breathtaking views that we tried to capture in pictures, but these pictures can't even compare to the beauty and majesty of God's creations.



There were multiple beautiful waterfalls throughout the entire hike! We didn't even get a picture with all of them! Here's fall #1!


Fall #2! (You can't see this one very well, it went up pretty far, but we couldn't get close.


Fall #3 was by far the best! This was a beautiful area aside from the trail. Next time we go up there we'll be wearing our swimsuits and we're going to play in the gigantic waterfall! It comes out far from the rocks, and the water actually wasn't that cold! This place was awesome!



Fall #4 was astonishing as well, but this one was too rough to mess with.


Fall #5 elegantly flowed under the bridge although it looks as swift as the others. Elliott finally got a drink, and I finally got to rest!
