Our High Uintah Hike

Early July Ross and I left the kids with my Mom for a couple days so week could hike into five-point, a lake in the High Uintah Mountains. My Dad is very involved in getting the dams and spillways improved and my two sisters and brother-in-law and Dad are working at several lakes this summer. They fly everything in with large army helicopters and I have to say they have quite the set up! Our twenty mile journey was wonderful, being together and enjoying such beautiful scenery was a perfect get away. The trail was rocky but well maintained, and the wild flowers were so brilliant and plentiful, especially for July, what a wet year it has been. It was great to see my family and meet the other's they are working with. We were able to get in some fishing too, I absolutely love being in the Uintahs and it brought back so many memories, some of the happiest times of my life have been spent on a horse, by the water, or in a tent a million miles from everyone (at least that's how if feels - so peaceful).
