Marjorie Lake Hike

 Even though it is a holiday weekend here in Utah we left very early to go up to the Mirror Lake Hwy to take a hike.
 We have not been to Marjorie Lake before even though we have hike in the area.
 It was a great destination even though it is at 10,000 feet.

This was the sky on the way back but we never got any rain.

Top of Park City

 

 Today, Andy and I took the lift to the top of Park City at 10,000 feet.  This is the view toward Deer Valley.
 It was a beautiful hike down one of the trails to another lift that took us to the town lift.  Then we walked back to our car at the ski lifts.
There are still remains of the mining facility on the slopes.  There are still the mining ore car supports in place from these days.

Cuberant Lake Hike

 This was a 7 mile hike with a 1000 foot elevation gain to a beautiful lake.
 The meadows were fantastic.
 There was an unbelievable climb up and down to and from the lake.  I felt that I was on the Alaska gold field hike.
 This is Andy going down.
 Cuberant Lake..our reward for the hike.

More adventures in Utah

 Saturday we took a scenic drive over the Midway mountains and stopped at Cascade Springs. Very pretty and interesting area.
Sunday we had a busy day.  First church at Mountain Life Church.  Then we drove up to a lake that we are thinking of taking the kayak to.  After letting Reilly out we changed into biking clothes and road up to Park Silly  We also rode the chairlift to the top of the mountain but it was so windy that we came back down.  There is a cold front coming through.
