Lake Blanche Hike

Lake Blanche Hike


Here is the gang! Adam found this hike from Utah's Incredible Backcountry Trails

We love that book! More importantly we love the hikes. Thayne is about to be 1 and wants to
"walk" everywhere so as you can imagine hiking in a pouch was hard for him so we
let him stretch his legs...

He loved trying to walk over the rocks
The whole hike you are surounded by vegatation. So PRETTY!
There wasn't a boring part about it. This is the view you are rewarded with...


We ate lunch on some big rocks. Something that I really loved about the hike is how you don't feel rushed to get back down. A lot of the times when you summit a mountain there isn't room for everyone. That wasn't the case at Lake Blanche there was plenty of room!

Totally worth the hike!

P.S. Just got myself some North Face Goretex Hiking shoes... AMAZING!!!
Highly recommend good shoes. There were a lot of rocks on the trail and I didn't have a problem with them
but Adam told me that he felt every single rock he stepped on and it wasn't comfortable.
Get some good shoes!
