Uintas 2008--my first backpacking trip ever..it was definitely quite the experience. I am surprised I ever went on another trip. It consisted of hiking mostly through rain and hail and then sleeping in a wet sleeping back. it was absolutely lovely:)...no but really..it was.

Here are a few family reunion hikes..

Park City 2011
Bear Lake 2009




Lake Tahoe 2008

Every year at our family reunions..we do a hike with all 50+ of us. They have a sort of reputation..."oh don't worry guys its only half a mile"..5 miles later and were still aren't half way to the arch. Nevertheless..we all still enjoy them! I have quite a few special memories from these infamous hikes.

Along with our family hikes, we do a backpacking trip every summer with whoever wants to go. Here are some from the past. This started my wanting to be an "organic granola girl" phase. Gotta love it!!:)

Oh and I apologize for the messy post..I'm still getting used to the blogging world.
