Getting ready to set up camp. Good thing neither one of us sleep walk.
Half way up the trail looking back on Fairview Canyon.
This is the high point on the Peak looking down on Utah Valley.
This is the high point looking east.
Mountain goat heard. They left when we arrived but I woke to the clip clop of them hiking on the rock cliffs.
Santaquin Peak elevation 10,685'
My friend Aaron talked me into hiking the Santaquin Peak with him so he could 'spot' for deer. It was an amazing hike that I have never done before. At the corral I always took my bike down the Benny Creek trail and never down the Loafer trail. We went last month in July and started the hike at 3:30 pm when it was 95-degrees. It was way to hot but we made it. It took us 4 hours to get to the saddle where we campled at 10,000' with the mountain goats. It was pristine and beaultiful. I highly recomend the hike.
I did it in my old running shoes, bad idea. I am still nursing blisters and purple toe nail.
