Chewing Gum lake - Emigrant Wilderness 26.-28. 7. 2016

One of my favorite activities is backpacking. Since last summer I was pregnant, I haven't been in the Sierras for almost 2 years. I was really looking forward to this trip. We chose relatively easy destination, not too far from the trailhead. Even though we tried to pack lightly, with a baby our backpacks were quite heavy. We camped at Pinecrest campground the night before and started our hike around 10:30 am. We stopped about every 30 minutes to rest and arrived to the lake around 2 pm. We found a nice campsite and set up a tent. I went for a swim, because it was so hot. The second day we went for a day hike. First we were planning on going to another lake, but we changed our mind and hike to a high place with a view, where we ate our lunch. The afternoon we spent by the lake again. On our last day we hiked out after breakfast. The backpacks were slightly lighter, so we were able to walk faster. :)

Jedna z mych oblibenych aktivit jsou vylety pres noc do hor. Jelikoz jsem minuly rok byla tehotna, tak jsem v horach Sierra takto nebyli skoro 2 roky. Hodne jsem se tesila na tento vylet. Vybrali jsem si relativne jednoduchy cil, ne prilis daleko od silnice. I kdyz jsme se pokusili zabalit se na lehko, s miminem byly batohy docela tezke. Noc pred vyslapem jsme stanovali v kempu Pinecrest a na vyslap jsme vyrazily kolem 10:30. Zastavovali jsme asi kazdych 30 minut na prestavu a k jezeru jsme dorazili kolem druhe odpoledne. Nasli jsme hezke misto na stanovani a postavili stan. Ja jsem si sla zaplavat, protoze bylo docela horko. Druhy den jsme vyrazili na denni vyslap. Nejdrive jsme planovali jit k jinemu jezeru, ale nakonec jsme si to rozmysleli a nasli si pekne misto na kopci s vyhledem, kde jsme poobedvali. Odpoledne jsme stravili opet u jezera. Dalsi den, ktery byl nas posledni jsme po snidani vyrazili zpet. Batohy byly mirne lehci, tak jsme sli trochu rychleji. :)

Rancheria - Huntington Lake Camping 15. -17. 7. 2016

This was our second camping with families with kids. This time, most of the families who came were our friends before we had Adam! It is nice to be able to keep in touch with our old friends while making new ones!  It was very relaxing weekend. On Saturday we did short hike to Rancheria falls, on Sunday we did about 5 mile hike toward Kaiser Peak, stopped at nice spot with views for lunch and then go back.

Toto bylo nase druhe kempovani s rodinami s detmi. Tentokrat jsme se kamaradili s vetsinou rodin jeste predtim nez se Adamek narodil! Bylo to pekne travit cas se starymi kamarady a zaroven navazovat nove pratelstvi! Byl to klidny vikend. V sobotu jsme sli na kratkou prochazku k vodopadum Rancheria, v nedeli jsme pak sli na asi 8 km vyslap smerem ke Kaiser peak, zastavili jsme na hezkem miste s vyhledem na obed a pak jsme sli zpet.

Lassen NP 1. - 4. 7. 2016

Camping is one of the easier option how to get into mountains. I managed to get a group campsite at Lassen NP. My original plan was going camping with our child free friends, but nobody was interested. So I opened the invitation to families with young kids. Some of our old friends joined us and we also made new friends.
Eric hasn't been to Lassen NP before. On Saturday we drove through the park and made a few stops for short hikes. On Sunday we went up to Lassen peak.
We had a great time and hoping to make this type of camping a tradition!

Kempovani je jednou z jednodussich moznosti jak se dostat do hor. Podarilo se me ziskat misto na kempovani pro vetsi skupinu. Muj puvodni plan byl jet kempovat s kamarady co deti nemaji, ale nikdo nemel zajem. Tak jsem pozvani rozsirila na rodiny s malymi detmi. Nekteri stari kamaradi se pridali a take jsme se skamaradili s novymi lidmi.
Eric jeste v narodnim parku Lassen nebyl. V sobotu jsem projeli park a udelali par zastavek na kratsi prochazky. V nedeli jsem se vydali na horu Lassen.
Meli jsme se bajecne a doufame, ze tento typ kempovani bude tradici!

Colorado 11. 18. 6. 2016

Eric's cousin Meredith was getting married. Many times before we were invited to stay in Colorado to explore the area, so we joined these two things together. The beautiful wedding was on Sunday, with wedding related activities on Friday and Saturday. The week after that we went for a few hikes in the area and of course visited Rocky Mountains National park.

Ericova sestrenice se vdavala. Mnohokrat predtim jsme byli pozvani do Colorada, abychom si mohli uzit oblasti, tak jsme spojili tyto dve veci dohromady. Nadherna svatba byla v nedeli, dalsi aktivity kolem svatby v patek a v sobotu. Tyden na to jsme pak vyrazili na par vyletu v okoli a samozrejme jsme navstivili Rocky Mountains National Park.

Backpacking Henry Coe SP 28. - 30. 5. 2016

I was looking forward going backpacking again. I was hoping to go to Sierras for Adam's first backpacking trip with us, but since I was told that Sierras have still snow, we decided to go to Henry Coe State park. This state park is only about one hour from home, so at least less driving. We camped only about mile from trailhead, which was good in case we had to hiked out. We did short hike around the are on Saturday. On Sunday we went to popular swimming spot China Hole, which was about 10 mile round trip and on Monday we only hiked out. We had fun and I am looking forward another backpacking trips with Adam.

Tesila jsem se az znovu pujdeme na vylet do hor. Doufala jsem, ze pojedeme do hor Sierras na prvni vylet s Adamkem, ale jelikoz mi bylo receno, ze je tam stale jeste snih, rozhodli jsme se vyjet jen do statniho parku Henry Coe. Tento park je jen asi hodinu cesty od nas, tak bylo alespon mene rizeni. Kempovali jsme asi jen 1.6 km od silnice, coz bylo dobre pro pripad, ze bychom museli jet zpet. V sobotu jsme sli jen na kratkou prochazku v kololi. V nedeli jsme se vydali k oblibenemu mistu na koupani jmenem China Hole, coz bylo 16 km tam a zpet a v nedeli jsme jen sli zpet. Uzili jsme si to a uz se tesim na dalsi vylety do hor s Adamkem.

Vancouver, Canada 8. - 16. 5. 2016

My friend Iva invited me and Adam to visit her in Vancouver. I went there twice before and since it is nice area I was happy to accept the invitation. It was Adam's first international flight and everything went well. Adam and I did some tourist attraction for three days when Iva was working, other days we spent hiking/walking around with Iva and her dogs.

Kamaradka Iva me a Adamka pozvala do Vancouveru. Ja jsem tam byla uz dvakrat predtim a jelikoz je to moc pekna oblast, tak jsem jeji pozvani rada prijala. Toto byl prvni Adamkuv mezinarodni let a vse probehlo bez problemu. Adamek a ja jsem zvladli navstivit nejake turisticke atrakce po tri dny, kdy Iva pracovala, dalsi dny jsme si vysli na vyslap/prochazku s Ivou a jejimi psy.

Del Valle camping 29.4. - 1.5. 2016

One of the activities that I love is backpacking. We hope to go backpacking with Adam soon, but we didn't want to go into wilderness until we knew how he will sleep in a tent. We tested out camping in Del Valle park, which is about hour away from our home.  Everything went great and we enjoyed our camping test!
PHOTOS

Jedna z aktivit, kterou miluji jsou vyslapy do hor. Doufame, ze se vydame do hor brzy i s Adamkem, ale nechteli jsme vyrazit do divociny dokud jsme nevyzkouseli, jak bude maly spat ve stanu. Kempovani jsme si vyzkouseli v parku Del Valle, kterey je asi jen hodinu od domova. Vse vyslo skvele a my jsme si uzili nasi kempovaci zkousku.
