Autumnal Equinox 2009I planned a big post for today, but didn’t quite get the graphics done last night, and anyway I like to always pause and take note of solstices and equinoxes. So just a “lite” post today, and then I promise another TdF* post tomorrow.
IMG_2300 It was a nice last weekend of summer. Saturday while Awesome Wife enjoyed a birthday spa-day, the Trifecta and I met up with SkiBikeJunkie and JunkieGirl- SBJ’s bright and charming 10 year-old daughter- to hike Bald Mountain in the Uintas. Mrs. Junkie was thoughtful enough to send us on our way with a bag full of egg and nut-free (in consideration of Twin A) treats. Check out the recipe on her blog- they are out-of-this-world good.
Bald Mountain is quite possibly the highest ROI hike in Northern Utah. It’s a piece of cake and fun for the whole family. But it’s above treeline, reaching just under 12,000 feet, and the views are stupendous. If you live along the Wasatch Front and have been meaning to take the family hiking this summer but just never got around to it (or if you meant to take yourself hiking this summer, but never got around to “getting in shape”) then this is your hike. But do it quickly- you’ve got another weekend, maybe 2, before the snow flies up there.
