And More From the Mountains

We had so much fun on Saturday going up Big Cottonwood Canyon. We went up to the top of Guardian's Pass and parked on this cliff where you can see for miles and there's a car at the bottom that has been there ever since Matthew can remember (pictured top left). Then we decided to go up Little Cottonwood Canyon and once we reached the top, we decided to get out and walk. So we hiked all the way to Secret Lake. It's a 2.5 mile hike one way. It was so much fun to do that as a family and the kids did so well!! William and Lily loved that there were rock stairs and of course they loved throwing rocks in the water. I think next time we go on a hike, however, we'll probably be a little more prepared. Maybe some water or snacks. Or wipes for when a little 3 year old girl needs to go #2 and there are no leaves around. Talk about a challenge.... But, overall it was a great experience and I wish we had started doing these things at the beginning of the spring!

-And yes, Matthew is mooning you in the top right corner. Just a peek.
