The Laughlins

There is a great hiking place about 20 minutes from where I live in Southern California called Vasquez Rocks. Recently, my friend, Mat, came to visit for Christmas (with his friend Micah), and Mat, Micah, Angela, and I went hiking there. When we arrived, they wouldn't let us drive all the way in to the closest parking area, and we found out that it was because they were doing a photo shot with live tigers! They told us that we could take the other trails, so we hiked up the back of the main rock and tried to watch them with the tigers down below. They ended up asking everyone to move off of the rock, so we didn't see the actual tigers, only their cage in the back of a red truck (see picture below). We walked around anyways and enjoyed being outdoors in December in tank tops :) Here are some of our pictures. Angela also did a great documentary video clip on the tigers.
