Alexander Basin

I am determined to make the most of my weeks off- within my established budget. This week the plan for an adventure was a hike in the Wasatch. I wanted to try a new trail- not hard since I haven't done many and this is the Wasatch you know. So up Mill Creek Canyon I went to conquer Alexander Basin. And it was a conquer- I probably won't hike that one alone next time... Steep, but it was beautiful. I'm not really that much of a "solo artist" but I won't sit at home just because everyone else is working and I have the day off. Rather do something alone than not at all.



















That was the trail...




Oh, and there was snow












I climbed up that patch of rocks- there is a trail there I promise.


























Loved the wild flowers!

I'm so happy for you! Looks like how I spent my days off while in Utah while everyone else was working. Too bad I'm 9-5ing it now or we could be TOTALLY adventurous. I'm guessing that's not in your weekly budget though :)

Wow,
I have received inspiration from many sources, but to be blessed with insight and such personal integrity from my daughter is a joy beyond measure.
Love Mom
ps. The pics are elevating....
