Amethyst Lake Hiking Adventure

Backcountry hiking adventures has always been on my bucket list. Dave, Jen, Mike and I decided that Amethyst Lake would be the perfect place to go. Here we are at the begining of our journey. Ahh... ignorance is bliss. Little did I know what I was getting myself into. It took us just a little over 5 hours, and gained 2,000 feet by the time we arrived at out destination. Needless to say I slept good despite the cold hard ground. On a scale of 1-10, and 10 being the best I give this hike a 9 1/2. Next year we hike the Subway in Zion. Good times!!!
Girls gone wild! Literally
Gotta act like we are cool, cause we are!
My bestest friends.
