DAY TRIP: MOSES COULEE
AGE 5, MONTH 9
APR 25 (2020)

We were in the mood for a road excursion with geological scenery, so we decided to drive up Moses Coulee. We hadn’t done this day trip for over 10 years! Early on, we spotted a small parking area that appeared to be a trailhead. We were treated to a short hike at Hungate Canyon. It lead us up to a creek and small pond.

Back on the road. After a while, we pulled over to eat our picnic lunch in the car.

The end of our trip was Jameson Lake. We heard some interesting duck calls there, and Todd found a fuzzy friend. I had to insist that he needed to stay at the lake instead of going home with us!
