BALD MOUNTAIN- SIDE DOOR

HIKERS: Amy, Kim, HopE

SUMMIT: 40 min.

RT TIME: 3:25 pm- 4:38 pm

WEATHER: 40 F -- way warmer than we thought it would be.

NOTES: tough conditions today. lots of mud and slushy, heavy snow. we chose the cross-country route most of the time to keep the mud from the road from building up on our shoes. It was a great work-out and a beautiful spring day.

ICY CHILL - NEW CANYON

HIKERS: Kim, Amy, HopE the dog
RT TIME: about an hour
WEATHER: fairly cold

AMY'S NOTES: A few days of warm weather and a snow storm thrown in between made for an icy hard-packed landscape yesterday morning. Classic Utah. The signs and symptoms of the closing of winter are in the air. Hallelujah! Look closely at the picture of HopE.

SLUSH & MUD- NEW CANYON

HIKERS: Kim , Amy, Hopie the dog

RT TIME: 1 hour, 10 min. to Lone Pine Hill

WEATHER: nice, brisk hiking weather

KIM'S NOTES: Whew, this really got us back into the thick of it. We really felt it in our calves, so it was a good work out. Lots of melting, slushy snow, thus the mud, but a great hike. May I just stress again how great it is to get out and hike again!
