Annette Lake Aug 13, 2011

Hike to Annette Lake passes some beautiful waterfalls
Bridges to cross
Once at the lake it is time to relax and have a bit to eat
There was still snow at the waters edge

Steve "The Photographer" was busy!
Stephen had just finished reading the Book of Mormon
Stephen stopped to pray and got his answer
Another interesting log bridge to cross

We made it and had a good time.

Green Lake at Snow Basin July 9, 2011

Mt Ogden and Allen Peak above Snow Basin





Little stream next to the trail

Pretty lady among the pretty flowers

Almost there and worth the hike?

Lake or pond, at least peaceful

Nice bench to rest

A few of Katy's favorite flowers

Pretty purple ones

Top of Stoney Point July 13, 2011

Stephen at the top

Balancing at the top of Stoney Point

Looking out of the big bolders

Hanging over the edge



Yes, I made it too


Lots of good hiding spots


Stephen wanted to push one over the edge


Stephen found a cave



Battle Creek Falls June 7, 2011

A picnic before I hiked by myself to the falls.

Creek is running fast

Battle Creek Falls was beautiful





A view from the bottom




Leaving the falls behind




Beautiful view out the canyon




standing in the creek




Live action of the falls







Rock Canyon Provo July 6 2011

Rocks are a plenty and beautiful

Nice hike up Rock Canyon (6 miles Round trip)

I could study the rock formations for a long time
We had a good stream running along the trail



3 miles to the Fountain wow what a disappointment




The water was drinkable!



One long water fall



Getting close to the end.



Stopped at the Provo Temple once finished the hike










Stewart Falls July 5, 2011

A nice time to stop for a rest (4 miles round trip)

Stephen left us to rest by ourselves

Scenery of the mountains and falls were great






Stephen was waiting at the falls for us





Good time resting at the falls





Mom and I climbed down to the bottom





Long walk back to the car

Hike to Rachel and Rampart Lakes Sept 30, 2010


This trail had lots of beautiful waterfalls

Streams to cross and walk through

The waterfalls came cascading down the hill

Here is my favorite waterfall over a huge bolder

The fall leaves where really beautiful

Rachel Lake was a welcome site following a steep climb

I fished for a few minutes while Steve took pictures
and Gary found a "Geocache"

Should have gone swimming as it was a warm day

We started to climb some more to the Rampart
Lakes

Steve and Gary were patiently waiting for me, although here I was above them

Beautiful stream running through the fall colors

A good lunch spot next to the Rampart Lake,
Fun fishing spot too

The lake was beautiful and full of fish (that wouldn't bite)

Time to start back down the hill to Rachel Lake

A great place for a rest and a picture

Another look at my favorite waterfall

This one was a close second!

Are you tired of waterfalls? I thought they were great!
