A Message from Family Trails
One of the things we've heard over and over from the Trails community is how every adventure leads to something new: a new memory, a new learning opportunity, some new inspiration for the next great adventure.

Koch Family: Wildlife Refuge
I try to take my children outdoors every day. I am a stay-at-home mom of 20-month-old identical twin girls and a four-year-old boy. We love getting out in nature, especially here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. But let's be honest, I can lose my mind being cooped up in a house all day with three little kids!

Daley Family: Moving Together
I was devastated when I learned that we would be moving from a small, French village near Paris to Washington back in the U.S. I was happy for the opportunities we had ahead of us, but had a tough time saying goodbye to a country I had grown to love during our time there.
“Hopefully, by teaching my children, they will carry this love and knowledge on...”

Willink Family: Imperial Sand Dunes
Barely findable on a map, the Imperial Sands Dunes are miles upon miles of raw, uninhabited, untouched sand, intended for dune buggies.

Crompton Family: Off-Season at Glacier National Park
We recently took a road trip to our cabin in Colorado, and always like to hit up a national park on our drive back to Washington state. This October we decided to stop by Glacier National Park in beautiful Montana.

Shedd Family: Picnic in the Mountains
I have 5 boys, so of course we go on a lot of adventures. We love to explore, hike and see new areas of God's creation.
