Salt Lake City

Ashley and the girls (minus one) took a break from all the B.S. that is 2020 and flew to Salt Lake City for a long weekend of hiking and girl time. It was just what the doctor ordered and so fun to check another place off of the bucket list.

Hiking along the Cascade River loop

SHT: Cascade River State Park to Judge Magney State Park

We clocked in our longest section hike on the SHT yet - 40 miles in the backcountry exploring one of our favorite places ever!

More awesome views from the ridge

Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park

We spent Labor Day weekend exploring a new place and had a great time in the “Porkies” doing some backpacking. We had great campsites on not one, but two iconic lakes, hiked right along Lake Superior’s south shore, and enjoyed beautiful views along the way.

Second overlook on Leveau Mountain hike, the best one yet

Tettegouche State Park

We introduced Emily to our favorite place in Minnesota, the North Shore! We spent a long weekend car camping and day hiking out of Tettegouche State Park. It was a great time to get up there and experience the fall colors!

North Cascades National Park!

North Cascades National Park

Check out our hiking trip in North Cascades National Park - an amazing experience packed with beautiful mountain views, turquoise water, an epic backcountry experience, and much much more!
