Hike to Twin Lakes

We went on a hike in Big Cottonwood Canyon today.  We hiked to Twin Lakes.  It wasn't a long hike but it ended up being challenging because there was still a lot of snow.  That made it slippery and harder to climb.  Ella and Gabby found it kind of frustrating and wanted to give up when we were almost there (about 5 minutes away).  We took a long break and then finished it.  It was also challenging going back down...we kind of slipped and slid down...almost everyone fell. This was definitely an adventure.  There were some tears and some complaints but overall the girls were brave and strong.

It's hard to see, but right in the shadow of the tree there is a deer.
