Rose Canyon Lake

Today we escaped the relentless Tucson heat and headed up to Mount Lemmon. We explored a new area: Rose Canyon Lake. We didn't know what to expect what but were pleased to find that just a short walk on a trail got us to a pretty little lake. I'm pretty sure we were the only visitors not fishing, but the girls enjoyed trying to catch the little minnows and tadpoles in the lake with their hands. We had a picnic lunch, and the girls also tried a little bit of hiking/climbing, although none of us were wearing the right shoes for anything serious. Overall it was a fun day, and we're thinking about planning another trip soon, only this time we'll bring the tents and spend the night!
