Round-Trip Distance:<\/strong> 3.5 mile, plus a 11 miles Bike\/Hike to Cascade Locks<\/p>\n

This was the last camping trip of the season. Will had to stay home and work, so I took the kids\u00a0to Eagle Creek Campground in the gorge. Noah came down with a fever on the trip, but overall it was a great time.\u00a0It was above the trains, so not so much train noise either.<\/p>\n

We hiked one of our most strenuous hikes yet \u2013 Buck Point. It was the summit of this rocky cliff, probably a little more dangerous that I had anticipated. There were high winds that practically blew us over.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The next day we bike\/hiked into Cascade Locks for ice cream. Did I mention my kids astound me with their endurance and stamina almost daily!<\/p>\n

One the way back we stopped at one of my favorite hikes, Wahclella Falls, that is a mile in and a mile out (included in the round-trip distance above).<\/p>\n
