Utah - Timpanogos Hike


The day that we went on our hike up to Timpanogos cave was amazing! It was an absolutely gorgeous, blue-skied, Utah day. I've always wanted to do this, so I was super excited. But, boy, was it hard! It was a lot more dangerous than I had thought it would be, too. But the kids were troopers, especially Callie and Andrew. I didn't hear one complaint come out of their little mouths, except for Andrew screeching when he heard someone say there were rattle snakes in the rocks! Despite the fact that all the tickets for the cave were sold-out, we hiked all the way to the top anyway and enjoyed the amazing views. Thanks to Alec, we were always up-to-date on our altitude. Thanks, Bud!

An observation ... if you fell into one of Callie's dimples, you would have to be air-lifted out ! She is verra cute !

We had to carry Hallie up & down that mountain when she was Ian's age. I'm sorry the cave was closed, but it is still an amazing hike!
