Hiking in the Mountains

While we were visiting Travis' family, we went on a hike with Ryan, Laura, Harrison, and Mckinley...too bad we didn't get a picture of all of us :( For July, it was still so green!

Overlooking Bountiful, what a view!
Bergen hiked with dad. As long as we were moving he would sleep. If we stopped to rest he would wake up and get a little fussy. Good motivation to keep moving I guess :)
We started the hike going straight up and thought the trail sure wasn't maintained very well...we didn't realize we were taking a shortcut until we ran into the regular trail. Needless to say we stuck to that path once we realized what we were going.
Stopping to enjoy the scenery.
Bergen doing what he does best...taking it easy with a nap.
The last bit of the hike Bergen woke up long enough and happy enough to take in the view. It was so fun to watch him look around, and see him smile when he spotted me following behind him.
As an extra bonus, we saw 2 hawks and 1 young buck. The buck was very nice to pose long enough for us to get a picture. Then we walked up the hill and crossed the trail just behind us.
Thanks for a fun hike guys!

Isn't it fun when your baby recognizes you like that!
