hiking at Rough Ridge

I could not pass up an opportunity to show off the wonderful hiking trails we have in the area.  Casey, the Texas Smiths, and I hiked to the top of Rough Ridge.  It is a great little hike because it is relatively short (less than a mile to the top), but still has some wonderful views.

Hunter and Brooklyn had their own packs and were ready to hit the trail.

About half-way up, there's a large rock to offers some great views of the area.  It was also a great place to get a picture of the Texas Smiths.

Adam decided to take the hard way up.

Eating snacks at the top.

The hike up was dry, but as we got to the top, we noticed a storm coming in.  Below you can see the wall of rain moving its way across the mountains.  By the time we got back to the cars, we were all completely soaked.
