Jeff and I hiked Table Rock this Saturday with his new found friend from work Jesse Ferney. Jesse and his wife came along with Jeff and I and we had a blast. It was way harder than we thought it would be though.
We took lots of breaks!
I don't know if you can tell but the middle peak at the very top of the picture is Table Rock! It is a 12 mile round trip hike.
We are almost there!
This dude was 80 years old! Kim and I had to take a picture with him! It was hard enough for me and I'm only 21!
AT THE TOP!!!
WE MADE IT!
This was taken on the way back! We literally started running...until we realized we had 5 more miles to go! We thought it would never end. You can see Table Rock in the background on the right of us.
It was so beautiful up there!
We started the adventure at 9 and ended at 5! It took us 8 hours but it was worth every minute.
Jeff and I want to go back every year. It was such a great humbling experience. I couldn't help but think about the pioneers and how they walked miles and miles over mountains to get to the west! I do not know how they did it! I have hiked a lot before but this one was one of the hardest by far. It takes the cake along with Angels Landing at Zions National Park and Union Falls in Yellowstone! We are grateful we live so close to places like this.
Suck up!
ReplyDeleteHiking can be hard! It's beautiful up there though. Good job.
ReplyDeleteYou brat...you totally left me behind!?! (I'm just bitterly jealous, that's all!!!) You do know who Jesse FERNEY's mom is...right!?! LOL...luv your guts!!!
ReplyDeleteI found you! Good thing I look so good in these pics! Pretty sure I look like 9 months Pregnant in the one with our old man friend! By that point I was pretty much done and obviously had no posture what-so-ever!! haha Thanks again for coming with us! I dont think I would have made it if you weren't there :) Lets play soon!!
