1st Annual Hike to the Y...

I have been going to Utah to visit family for over 20 years now. I have always wanted to hike to the Y on the hill that overlooks BYU and the Provo area. This year we did it! We started early in the morning so it was still cool. The sun finally broke over the top of the mountains as we were headed down. We got to the trail around 8am. There were lots and lots of people coming down the mountain already. There was entire group from BYU that had been up and back, campers coming down off of the mountain too. We were passed up twice by a gentleman who had to be in his mid 80s. He was on his way down for the second time before we made it all the way to the top for the first time! It was a great hike up and coming back down was a challenge too, it is quite a steep trail most of the way. We have decided this will be an annual thing!
