I woke up without an alarm at 4:30a. I sprung out of bed and got to work. Now that I was going to be doing an 11-12 mile hike, I had to pack differently.

Life Returning After Range Fire

Regrowth is underway in Provo Canyon following last October's Range Fire that burned thousands and thousands of acres.

Patience on the Trail with Mother Nature

And while my initial reaction is frustration coupled with a little bit of anger, I need to look for ways to create connection and understanding.

Timpooneke Delight

One of trails that leads to the summit of Timp is the Timpooneke (tim-poo-new-key) Trail. This morning, after the rain stopped, I drove up into American Fork Canyon and went to the trail. My intention was to hike about 1.4 miles in on the trail, count it as a bit of practice for the 14.2 mile hike to the summit and back.
