Silver Falls: morning hike

We woke the next morning, and ate breakfast burritos. We needed some good breakfast food to go on a nice hike to South Falls. There are 10 waterfalls in the 9 mile loop at silver falls, we ended up seeing 4 of them... 

 When we started to hike, Owen noticed this small water fall, so we started naming each teeny tiny falls. This one is teeny falls.
 The real south falls.




 "Trail falls". It goes through a culvert!

 Behind the falls




 Absolutely beautiful!

 We continued on to Lower South Falls.









 We got to go behind this one too!

 Owen went slowly down the stairs, but bounded up them quickly... I'll admit I was just the opposite.

 He loved being behind the falls


Our total hike for this one was about 3 miles. Owen did great, and amazingly, Lucas' ankle didn't hurt a bit! Maybe hiking is good for it!
