This adventure was SO much fun. It started with a picture I had seen, but I wasn't too sure of where it was located. I had a general idea, so we loaded the kids up in the 4Runner and headed off. On the way, we talked about our plan and watched the mountains looking for the one we were trying to find. We parked and started hiking down the beach.

My oldest and I hiked the Profile Trail to Calloway peak many months ago, and ever since then I've been really wanting to get my wife and youngest up to see the views here. However, hiking to Calloway Peak is no easy feat for a four-year-old! In fact, these trails aren't even meant for children. But we were eager to see how they would do, and what better way than to head out on the trail and test the waters?

While exploring Yosemite last weekend, our kids learned more than just the park's significant geological features, but also a look at the history of the Ahwahnechee people. It triggered a lengthy conversation with our seven-year-old who has a passion for history.
