Hiking Flattop

Instead of playing Frisbee golf last night, Craig, Lindsey (our friend who is staying with us), and I decided to hike Flattop.

Driving to the trail head.

We hiked in the Chugach State Park, just a hop, skip, and a jump from Anchorage.

Gotta pay the park fee; it’s a good thing.

A beautiful rainbow had formed when we started our hike.

Our destination.

So many decisions.

Craig taking a break. This was the hardest portion because of the loose rocks.

Half-way up–standing in “The Saddle” overlooking Anchorage.

Getting closer. . .  (We aren’t quite as close as it appears.)

So close. . . .

We made it!

Craig and me!

Lindsey and me–it was super windy and cold!!An awesome view with some awesome people. 🙂

Hi, I'm Michelle

I love running around the lakes of Minnesota, running after my two boys, and racing anything from the 5K to the marathon. I have been blogging here since 2010 when I ran my first marathon. I finally secured my sub-3 hour marathon after trying for 8 years.
