We started the summer off with hiking several trails in our area. I'm sharing two of those hikes with you today :) Lucky you!
In May Weber Pathways ( an organization that creates, maintains and leads organized hikes here in Weber County ) did a wildflower hike every Wednesday morning for a couple of hours. It was so neat to get out and learn to identify different wildflowers here in Northern Utah. The last hike we did as a group was up at Causey Dam. Our guide said it's the only place in Northern Utah that she's found the wild clematis.

| Causey Dam - parking area at the north arm - BEAUTIFUL! |

| This tree caught my eye - so neat how it's growing out of the bank |

Memorial Day we hiked the Indian Creek Trail with our neighbors and some of their extended family that live in the area. We had a great time.....well, that is besides me feeling like I was going to have 10 heart attacks along the way!!! What a climb. It took us 4 hours. I considered giving up more than once but I'm to stubborn!
I'm so glad we went as it was a beautiful hike. It gave us a whole different perspective of Ogden Canyon. If you love the great outdoors Utah is a wonderful place to live! We love it :)
There was a small building at the top that was part of the old saw mill and the view from there was awesome.

If you're ever in our area stop by and we'll go hiking :) Or sit and chat over a cup of coffee.
Til then :)
