It's not unusual for Hazen to point out a mountain while I'm driving, saying "Hey Mom, look at that mountain". Ever since Cally hiked up Camels Hump, he's been saying every mountain he sees is Camels Hump. Last week, he decided he wanted to climb a mountain. So we set our sights on the mighty Mt. Philo in Charlotte.
I haven't hiked Mt. Philo in years, but it is the perfect hike for a hearty 2 year old, a broken Dad, his sister and our dog. There were plenty of fairy houses to look for, poppers to pop, and erratics to climb upon.
The views were amazing! And yes, it does look like Cally has Hazen in a head lock here.
He made it one mile up and one mile down (with a 500 foot elevation gain)! It looks like we've got ourselves a pair of hikers.
