Battle Creek Canyon

So I'm starting to think that our blog has turned into a log of all the places that we hike with Taylor. I think that it just might be that the only time that I really take the time to take pictures is when we are out on a hike....I need to do better!

Angie, Jodee, Emily (Jodee's Daughter), Taylor, and I went for a hike up Battle Creek Canyon, which is in Pleasant Grove. I had never heard of this little canyon, but I would recommend it highly. The hike is fairly steep, but worth the hike. Here are some pictures of just one of the water falls on the way.



The book that we found this hike in wasn't very clear about where the hike ended....so we just kept climbing...up...up...up...more up...and more up...I almost died. Finally we ran into this sign that told us we were only 1.3 miles from the car. Yikes...it felt like way more than that!! But still we kept going!


And finally we reached the top of the peak that we were hiking up. The trail continued on, but we decided to call it a day. As seen in this picture, we had a great view of Timp! I figured the view was worth the hike and we probably weren't going to beat it, so we turned around.Well, we left my house around nine in the morning and I got home around 2!! What a day!
