*Summer Hiking*

We managed to do two huge hikes over the summer! One as soon as we got home to WA, and the other right before coming back to Provo. We hiked the 15.5 miles into Stehekin to surprise Roger's mom for her birthday in June (and then hiked back out a few days later!). In August, when Owen (Roger's brother) and his girlfriend Suzie came up from California, we did our second annual McGregor Mt. hike. This year though, we made it an overnight trip, and suffered the whole way up to camp. But the next morning the view at the top was well worth the pain and scary ascent. We definitely had a great, adventurous summer with family.

Water anyone?

We made it! (Back at the car after another long day)

Roger, Brooke, Owen, Suzie - finally made it to camp at sunset - time for bed!

Sunrise as we crested the cliffs below the top of McGregor Mt

Bundled up at the top cause it was freezing!! (8122 feet)

Finally warming up as we headed back down to camp

This was our tent!
