Colby and Sarah, along with some friends of ours, prehiked the trail in May that the 4th level campers were to hike in June. About half way up they ran into snow! Yup snow! This is why we prehiked it before we sent up a group of girls. So what is a stake camp director to do when the meadow has 3 feet of snow in it that 23 girls were suppose to sleep in? Well, first we had a meeting with the hike specialist and her husband, they still wanted to do it. So, you guessed it, we called them all and told them to forget the swimsuits and bring boots! They hiked it 5 miles up and camped in the snow and then hiked 5 miles down the next morning! No injuries and they said they had fun!
Here are some pictures of Colby's hike.

A little video Steve took of Sarah playing with the frogs, notice Abby wants nothing to do with them!
