Climbing & Camping

We took the girls on their first backpacking trip up to Ruth Lake in the High Uintah Mountains. We had such a great time. The girls were super hikers and campers. We went climbing the next morning with the Hopkinson family. It is always fun to push my fears of heights with some rock climbing. :)

Eve was such a great backpacker. She carried her little pack everywhere we went.

Love the mountains

Breakfast

New headlamps

The girls thought they were so big with their new headlamps

The girls really wanted to sleep in hammocks, but it rained most of the night.

Hammock bunkbeds.

Dinner

Ready for the bugs!

Sweet Eve!

Aaron hauled all our light stuff in the jogging stroller. It was a nice idea in thought, but not a great idea in reality. The stroller got beat up.

Packs loaded and ready to roll

Little backpackers!
