The family that hikes together is one that stays together, especially when they’ve got more modern technology than the Apollo Moon Mission.

Referring to themselves as ‘Team Awesome,’ between fist pumps and high-fives, this all ages, adrenaline-seeking juggernaut is ready to micromanage and macro-prepare for every possible scenario that the wilds of the Issaquah Alps throws their way.

They’ve got backups for their backup gear, first AND second-aid kits, and they can surmount any obstacle in their path – be it falling leaves, a spotty cell phone signal that disables their pinpoint, DOPPLER radar weather APP, or just another human being interfering with their super charged, outdoor adventure.

A passing squirrel, however, is a whole other commercial.

Cougar Mountain Day Hiking Family, you’re one of us.
