Backpacking Trip to Hunt Lake

Kirt wanted to take the kids on a backpacking trip to Hunt Lake.  It is on the east side of Priest Lake.  They left Thursday afternoon.  They drove up and looked and looked and were not able to find the trial head. So they ended up camping at the campground at Indian Creek on Priest Lake.  In the morning they got up and with the help of a park ranger were able to find the trial head.  They hiked up to Hunt Lake.  It is a 2 mile hike that is straight up over a field of boulders.  Garret went swimming in the lake in his underwear (and then free balled it on the hike back down). They drove back to Spirit Lake and met me and Michelle and the kids there and spent the rest of Friday at the lake.




 Garret and Kirt slept out under the stars on a tarp instead of the tent. Katie slept in the tent by himself.

 It was a very narrow road to the trial head
