Another hiking adventure...

Real elation is when you feel you could touch
a star without standing on tiptoe.

A couple weeks ago, a bunch of us took the Land Cruiser out past one of our communities and went on an all-day hike. This was nothing like the other hikes we’ve been on… this was more like rock climbing! I mean literally, we brought rope and had to use it to get up a few boulders at one point! We were under the impression that we would be following a river the entire was to the waterfall, but instead we were actually hiking through the river the entire time! We were drenched all day- good thing I wore my spandex which dry fairly quickly! It was a treacherous hike and obviously I sprained my ankle again! We were constantly balancing and climbing over rocks, wading up to our waists in water, and scaling down the sides of boulders. A few of us took some spills and were drenched up to their necks the whole time!
