What a way to start the summer.... Our goal this summer as a family is to hike as many trails here in our northern part of Utah as we can. The one we did tonight was called Adams trail or Fernwood, just off of 89 highway in Kaysville or Layton (not sure which city is once your up there). This was our second time doing this trail and each time we have been trying to get up to a 40 ft waterfall thats at the end. But, as we made it this time even further and thought we could make it this time the trail had been washed out from all the water we have had this year and now the run off of the snow took the trail out and you could climb over this big rock, but didn't want to take the risk with the twins slipping and falling and adding to the death toll that has already happened this year with all the kids falling into the creeks and rivers raging and it is raging, and is so beautiful but definitely don't want to take the risk and loose one of them.
Joe and Patrick getting around the big rock to get to other side, were the water took the trail out..

It is a beautiful hike though even though we couldn't make it all the way, but hopefully in a month or two when it stops flowing so high we will be able to get up to the falls. But, for now this is our first hike with many more to come... by the end of summer I better be skinny minny after all this, hehe..
