Backpacking in Big Bear

We just got back from a short (overnight only) backpack trip up in Big Bear, San Bernardino Nat Forest. It was Elliot's first backpack, though not first time camping. We chose a short 2 mile trail since we had to carry all our things AND Elliot. Though as it turned out, he walked about half the distance up the hill (saving my load by 25 lbs!). Chris carried most of the gear, save the pots, which we accidentally forgot in the car, whoops. Luckily, it was only 2 miles down (and 2 back) to retrieve them before dinner! Some photos and a couple of videos:
