We've been taking hikes to places where not many people are - none at all here this day - and have greatly enjoyed getting out during this time of "social distancing" because of the Coronivirus. Feel just a little guilty about enjoying my time off work and it being hard times for many. This day we took the hike on part of the Red Hill where Supe and Ari go for walks. We love that all of the recent rains have filled up the pond at the top of the hike. And this time we even saw a baby desert tortoise!
Red Mountain Trail - this hike was perfect! The weather was just right, it had been raining long enough to make lots of beautiful pools, but was sunny this day and the sand was all packed with water instead of being terrible to hike in. We think we did 12-15 miles and it felt good! We love this place. I think this was the best time I've ever done this trail. We saw a few people, but were able to keep our "social distance" as prescribed at this time. Pictures can't even begin to do this beautiful place justice!
Last Saturday morning we took a beautiful bike ride up the West Canyon Trail in Snow Canyon! It felt good! Then in the afternoon we took Zade and Trigg to escape from being so much in the house and went to Supe's Pond again. They had never been and loved seeing it and also the little side hike over to Courgar Rock. Afterwards we stopped in at the drive through at BK for some ice cream cones and then took a ride around the St. George Temple to see how the renovation work is coming along. It was such a fun time! We had originally planned to go on a different shorter hike close to their house, but it was covered with people, so this turned out much better - we didn't run into anyone else.
