Hatchers Pass Independence Mine

Today we went to Hatchers Pass to the Independence Mine Historic Museum and hiked around the Mine. Kyla was a great hiker and wanted to lead the way up the steep trails. It was a cool 46 degrees up in the mountains, a refreshing break from the 80's we have had at home.
