This was quite a steep climb with falling rocks and cactus around every turn.
After eating our snacks on the top of the mountain, we chose the easy way down,.....sliding.
Oh, I forgot, the first part of the hike was walking across the Salt River. Some of us brought our water shoes so the rest of the hike wouldn't be soggy. I thought this was so cute of David helping Amy across the river.
Usually the Salt River is much higher than this. I have tubbed down this river several times as a kid with all the drunkards. It was quite an education.
Cody didn't want to get his shoes wet, so Grandad carried him. Thankgoodness for Grandad, or Indiana Jones. (Dont' you think he looks like Indiana?)
All in all, it was a great hike and we can't wait till the Christmas hike.

What a blessing to be near family for the holidays! I'm glad things are going well for you. I just found out last night that Vivian might have cancer again. She has an appointment today. Scott is able to go with her and she'll get the results sometime in the next few weeks. I figure I can tell you because she told many people at Enrichment and then started making comments about her big mouth. Good old Viv! Keep her in your prayers.
What an awesome tradition! It looks like tons of fun and Uncle L. Grey gets bonus points for holding his own while "fording" a river. ;>)
