Seven Falls

We went to Seven Falls this weekend with my mom. It's a little park and waterfall near Colorado Springs - probably within Colorado Springs city limits it's so close! Here we are by a little statue near the start of our hike. The top of the waterfall is up a bunch of stairs (224 stairs it says) so we had a little bit of a climb. Matthew made it up all the stairs and Anna made it up about half way and got carried the rest of the way (by me). Scott made it up all the stairs in his walking boot while carrying the sleeping Grant. Grant only spit up on him once.

Here we are at the top. Anna was a little cold.

Me and Anna resting along the way.

Here is a view down the first set of stairs. It was so steep.

We fed some trout there by the falls. They were a lot more relaxed about getting fed than some of the carp we fed in Japan.

Here we are taking the elevator to a look out point.

Matthew was excited to walk through the cave to the elevator.

Up at the top of the lookout we had a great view of all seven falls.

Grant wasn't appreciating the scenery and started to get a little fussy.

Matthew wanted to check out the scenery with this thing...it doesn't work too well without paying the money. :)

You can see plenty without it though.
It was really beautiful!

More views of the falls.

I liked this Pike's Peak or Bust wagon near the falls.
We're there!! It was nice to get out and enjoy some of the beautiful Colorado scenery.
I'm hoping it will start getting warm for good now so we can see more of it!
