Pictures From Utah Trip

I have attached the pictures that should have been included in the last post. There were so many that it took forever to go through all of them and decide what to include!

On the way down we stopped at Malad Canyon in Idaho.



The day Karen and I drove to Sundance and on to Cascade Springs, we stopped at a rest stop and took these pictures:







At Sundance we walked along the creek path to the general store:











From Sundance we drove up to the Aspen Loop, and took the north loop towards Cascade springs. The first pictures are of Mount Timpanogas and the adjacent peaks right before we left Sundance. The rest were taken along the drive towards the springs.











Cascade Springs was just as I remembered it. There was plenty of water as the snow was still melting in the peaks above.

The path to the springs takes you down a steep hill, and through lush undergrowth. The entire spring is traversed on boardwalks.





Karen on the bridge:



If you look carefully at the picture below that appears to be of brown water, you can see the trout that are indigenous to the springs.



Although the springs are covered in water plants, the water itself is crystal clear.





The lower tier:







Higher tiers:







This is the "hillside" that Esther and I rode down on the zip line (over the K120!)



On the way home we stopped at a rest stop in Idaho were there were lots of wildflowers. The pink one in the last picture looked like an orchid close up, and smelled divine. I found an old stalk and shook out a few seeds. I have planted them at home and hope they will grow.
