Memorial Day - Quake Lake

On Memorial Day we drove up to Quake Lake.  We had never been up there before.  It was interesting to learn about the earthquake that made the lake.  A little sad too. 

The lake wasn't very pretty. Because of all the spring run off it was quite muddy still.  But the view otherwise was amazing!

We also stopped by Hebgen lake.  The water was much more clear.

 

We threw rocks in the lake and got all fishy smelling. The girls had a great time!

We made the loop past the lakes and down through West Yellowstone. It was a perfect place to stop and have our picnic and play on the toys.

That night we had a cookout at Grandma Lusk's.  The girls had a great time playing with their cousins and Amree and Jaina were very excited to have a horse ride with Uncle Rodney.
