The Jardine Juniper Trail

So, not too much new these days. We almost made it to the end of this trail but because of time constraints we turned around and made it back down to have pancakes at Crestview Apartments with those who came with the exception of a few.

Okay everybody, this is the Extreme talking now. I would like to take a moment of your time to list some of the adjectives I would use to most accurately describe the conditions of this trail: dry, wet, rocky, uphill, flat, downhill, muddy, snowy, then muddy again, and finally ending in a parking lot.

Like Michael said, we didn't make it to the trail's namesake this time, but that's cool too. In that case, however, I would likely also include "junipery" on my list of adjectives. Please note this.

Finally, I would just say that it sure is awesome to have great friends like these who want to go on some sweet adventures! Can't wait to see what else this summer has in store.

Leatham Hollow: The Beginning of Extreme Adventures

"THE EXTREME"

This was a sweet hike Tyler "The Extreme" Stoker and I went on last weekend up Blacksmith Fork Canyon. It rained the whole time and I wouldn't have it any other way.
This is me after having driven back down the canyon to use the restroom in the local McDonald's. Moral of the story; use the restroom before your drive up a canyon you have never been to before. Don't even think about jumping the fence that says "No Trespassing."


We had to back out because we were running into more and more snow as we got closer and neither of us were up for wading through a few more miles of snow. So when all was said and done we decided that this was definitely a hike that needs to be repeated.
