About a week ago my friend and I hiked Mt. Timpanogos (elevation 11,749 ft). This was the third time I've hiked it, 2nd time on this trail and 2nd time to the saddle. It took us 9 1/2 hours including stops, 5 up, 4 1/2 down...it's about 16-18 miles round trip (different sources say different distances, I'm not sure which is right). I was very tired by the end of it, but it was well worth the hike.I didn't take Keva that would have been too much for her, she'll get to go next year when she's older. Here's my photos:
We started out at 7:30 am. You know, its really cold wearing a t-shirt and shorts that early in the mountains...unless you're a husky of course.
Moose! This is zoomed in, but not that much, he was really close to the trail.We had to stand back and wait for him to leave before we went further.
Aw there's the sun...it was warm once it came up over the mountains
My friend Michele and her dog Cisco (she'd probably kill me if I posted the ones where you can actually see her )
Three deer that were watching us (until the dogs noticed them that is)
