The first night Sean, his Uncle John, and myself setup camp at Big Meadows Camp Ground. Sean was put in charge of some important tasks. One of the task he completed was to build a fire. Sean gather most of the materials needed, and with those materials he was able to build his first ONE Match fire.
After eating dinner in the camp ground, we went on an evening hike into Big Meadow. There we saw many deer. Most of the Deer let Sean get very close to them. The deer in the background is a four point buck. After the hike, we sat around the fire for a little while, then Sean went to sleep in the tent. Then about 10:30 in the evening a thunder storm came by and forced John and myself into the tent, so we went to sleep as well.
The next day, the real hike began. This picture is the the before shot we always take before we go on any backpacking trip. The trail we chose is all down hill for the first day, which means the last day will be all up hill. See we are smiling now.
The first along the trail was Rose River Falls. At the Falls, we ate lunch and swimming under the Falls. The water was very cold. 
After our swim, we put our gear on again and continued the hike down the trail. We walked down into the valley for about another half mile and then we went off the trail and headed to the back country. We didn't go real far, just enough to get away from the main trail. This picture is of our camp we setup in the back country. This camp sat above the river. It was just short walk down the bank to the river to get water.
