The Uintas Backpacking Trip

A couple of weeks ago Bret's sister Lori and her husband Scott came for a visit from Illinois. Bret and Scott took Max and his cousins Adam, Bekah and Caleb on a backpacking trip in the Unitas. They got cold and they got eaten by mosquitoes but all in all they had a fun time. Here are some pictures of their trip.

Bret cooked up some fish for dinner


Max fishing


I guess that is one way to do it!


Bret said that Max had fun just being in the tent


The second day Caleb fell asleep with a rock as a pillow! He got a strip of sunburn on his back.


Gorgeous views


They found some snow and build a little snow man. They thought that was pretty cool to build a snowman in July.
