Northwest Trek

Today we went to Northwest Trek with the Smith Family. I decided to take the family picture first so that we would have happy boys, and I wouldn't have to hound them later. The first thing we did was take our tram ride. It was a 45 minute ride through the park where we were able to see Caribou, Bison, Rams, a moose, swans & ducks. Of course not only were my little men in heaven, but James loved the whole thing. Especially spotting deer and drooling over a large herd of dream elk. You know the kind with antlers that would be the honor of any proud hunter.

After our tram ride we were able to go on through the rest of the park on foot. It was fun to be in the woods and still see animals from a safe/fenced area. I thought it was better than the zoo. The boys would run up ahead to the next exhibit and on a rare occasion sit on a bench waiting for us. They were always in sight, just so excited to see everything the wanted to run. We stopped mid-way for a picnic lunch and then on to more animals. At the end of the day we went to a learning center and LJ posed next to his favorite animal.
Once again we had a great time as a family and with our friends. We will most definitely come back here again.
