Lake Blanche

This last summer has been pretty exciting from camping and backpacking to hiking and repelling. Brian's goal with this summer was to cram in as many hikes and vacations as possible before he started his 3rd semester of nursing school at the U. He has heard from many 3rd and 4th semester students that the 3rd semester is rough, to put it lightly. So starting in June I told him to pick an easier hike that I could go on with him. Little did I know that easy to Brian is hard for me. Anyway, we decided to go on the Lake Blanche Trail up Big Cottonwood Canyon. Here is the start of the trail.

At the top the lake was frozen but it was quite beautiful with Sundial Peak towering above it.

Here are some more pictures from our long hike.




It was a great day for a hike and even though it was tough for me I was glad that I decided to go on it with Brian. I'm learning that tough things are good for me. :) Well that is all for this post. I will add more pictures and stories from this summer soon.
