Backpacking

This post was contributed by Scott:

 What a Summer we had! The boys and I went backpacking in the High Uintas to Cuberant  Lake over the Fourth of July weekend. It is a 5 1/2 mile hike in and out I had a 85lbs pack and loved every minute of it. We were their for three days and decided that this will become a tradition every summer. One year ago I weighed 350lbs and had a 55 inch waist I could only dream of doing this. Now at 210lbs and 36 inch waist, I can do so much more than just dream. What a change in my life. I feel blessed to have this new attitude about life and opportunity to really live.  

 

 We were at the top of the 1500 foot incline that drops down into the Cuberant Lake basin. I am proud of Carter and James. This was not an easy hike. There were a lot of vertical climb. They were troopers and made it to the finish.
