Waterfall Hike

This past saturday I had the day off so I took full advantage of it. It was a wonderful day full of things I love to do. I first slept in which is always a wonderful thing. But then it was time to not be so lazy and do some hiking. My uncle Toby and my cousin Tysen and I went on a hike to a beautiful waterfall near provo canyon. It was really fun to see all the beautiful trees around us and share stories with each other.

This is the top of the waterfall. It came from the top of the mountain and emptied into a small pool but then dropped down to another waterfall.



So this is the second waterfall. I was debating on going all the way under but I chickened out. If I had a different colored shirt on I totally would have done it. Standing right there I was already getting drenched. One boy went all the way under and he got so indredibly soaked. 


 The mist from the waterfall felt so good from getting so hot on the hike.


So as is tradition, my family does not stay on the path. We didn't do it on purpose. After taking the picture with Tysen we didn't really know how to get down to the waterfall from there. We saw this small path that was rocky and at the bottom was this loose gravel. It was an adventure for sure. We had to slide down on our bottoms to get to the bottom of the waterfall. It was not until we got down that we found the path we were supposed to take. Its okay though. I got a bruise on my hip/thigh area to account for the hike.



The rest of the day was great. We were able to play games the rest of the day. Then it was eating a delicious cream cheese brownie at kneaders. :)

Wow that is very pretty there! I wish I could go there and have a fun hike with you guys. I have to find myself a waterfall here so Jon and I can go hiking to it. Looks like you had a lot of fun. :)
