We took a fun hike near the mouth of Ogden Canyon called Rainbow Falls. I love hikes that are rewarding, like having a waterfall at the top so I was excited to go. It was quite steep but fun to do together.
 |
| This is at a crossover bridge where I was able to be right over the water flowing down the mountain. |
 |
| I stopped to smell the wild roses that were growing along the path. |
 |
| Finally to the top at the falls! |
 |
| This was about as close as we could get without getting soaked- the falls were that powerful. |
 |
| They were very high- like 200 feet tall. |
 |
| I was getting pretty wet in this spot and the falls were so loud at this location we had to yell to each other to be heard. |
 |
| Looking down to the valley from the falls. I'm facing the falls and squinting because of the spray. |
 |
| This butterfly was flying around us on the way down and finally landed in a spot we could take a lovely picture of it. |
 |
| On our way down, a friendly rattler crossed our path coming out of hibernation. |
 |
| We kept our distance. All he seemed to want to do was get away from us and scurry up this hill. I had never seen a rattler alive in the wild before, even living in Arizona, so I was a little freaked out. |
