More hiking adventures

Yesterday we took a very short hike into Big Cottonwood Canyon on Guardsman’s Pass. More photos here.

Today’s hike!

We found lots of mushrooms today – the kind we like to eat (morels) and other kinds. Here are some photos:






Hiking

Today Tom and I went hiking in Little Cottonwood Canyon in the Wasatch Mountains. It’s mushroom season, so we will be spending all our spare time hunting mushrooms. We hit the jackpot today – enough for dinner! We found oyster and morel mushrooms.

I’m glad I have been riding my bike a lot because I feel if fairly good shape for hiking, although I still need some work.

Here are a few photos:
