Fork lake trailhead

Any time we have a free day and Michael is home, I want to hike.  We're still kind of new at it and not that familiar with the trails but I knew there were more trails by the one to Lake Basin, which is one we did last year.  We finally found a trailhead that was supposed to take us to a lake (forgot name) 5 miles from the trailhead, but after 5 plus miles one way and no lake, we decided we'd better turn back since we were low on water and the kids were getting tired.  Carrying Stahle in the kelty is not nearly as fun as it used to be.  She's gotten lots heavier since last year and we carry lots of our stuff in there.  We also need better hiking shoes because our feet were pretty sore by the end.  The kids were real troopers though, hardly complaining the whole way.  On the way home we stopped at the Pizza Factory in Red Lodge.  It was absolutely beautiful scenery and I love to hike with my family.
