Hiking around Carson River

The kids had Friday off of school so we took them to Carson City to hike around part of Carson River. It was a fun and easy walk minus the mud on a certain part of the trail. It was fun to be out of the house getting some exercise before the next snow storm hits. The kids love climbing on the trees and throwing rocks in the river. We were told there are two bald eagle's nests across the river from where we were but we never saw them. The kids enjoyed seeing all the dogs walking with their owners and playing in the water. We walked down to a part of the river where there is a beaver dam across the river where many people come and swim. The kids were hoping they would get to swim and I had to remind them it was winter. This is one of the few park/trails that allows dogs, horses and bikes. We want to bring our bikes next time.
