Hiking, seems simple enough right? Should be a long trip, up a longer hill...Short, easy for the kids, shouldn't take very long are all relative terms when associated with Risenmays and 'hiking'. A two mile hike usually ends up being 5-6, much longer and quite the adventure. Never a dull moment is the term I would use. Here we are at mile marker 2 of a 2 mile hike.......huh, not exactly the ski lift we were looking for. On we go.

this little girl rocks. she kept up with the big kids and never complained. (can't say that even for myself.... ;) )
oh look, a map. I wonder where we are - here? no, over here? no, right where we're standing that's where we are.....haha, I have no idea what they're talking about, but that sounds about right. We just have to go straight up and then over there to get to the ski lift....another 2 miles. bahahaha!
looking out over the Heber Valley - absolutely beautiful
we finally made it to the top and found some hiking sticks along the way.

a little creature came out looking for snacks
and then here comes my favorite part of the hike......I lie, this is torture for me and apparently for Abbey too - she looks a little too white.
we rode with these 2 jokers. I tried not to drop my phone, hold on tight to abbey and breathe through the downward gauntlet. ;)
Jeff has a really great picture of me leaning back so we don't tip over......I was a bit paranoid and almost threw up before we got on the seat. (a bit, more like A LOT)
