Jeeping!

Forrest and his daddy LOVE to go jeeping. Forrest gets really excited when we put the carseat in the jeep and head out "up, up, up" the mountain, as he says. We belong to the local 4x4 club and every month or so we all get together and go on an excursion outside of Lander. Last time it was up into the Wind River Mountains just south of Lander. One of the people we went with said he had just been up there and there was "just a skiff" of snow, so we didn't take our snowboots. Big mistake. Forrest and I just stayed in the jeep the whole time.

This time, we were prepared with snowpants, hats, gloves, boots... the WORKS! But, although there was some snow, we headed north and east out of town, so there wasn't much. We had a fantastic time and Forrest can't wait for the next adventure!
This is a beautiful view of the Wind River Mountains. It was a wonderfully warm spring day!

I liked this view of the jeeps on the horizon after the climb up the long hill.

The little jeep in front of us got high centered going through a hole so Bill and another guy tried to push/bounce it so that it could get two wheels on the ground and get a little traction. Forrest sat in our jeep saying "Push, Daddy, Push!"
