Sunday evening we drove up the north fork of the Provo River to Brickerhaven for a visit to the cabin and a hike to the falls. It was a beautiful evening with intermittent rain. The heavy melt has created new streams all over the meadows below the falls. The vegetation at the falls looks like it was burned, but was actually buried under snow until very recently; it is just now beginning to leaf.

Water running free throughout the meadow
The hikers
Stewart Falls churning extraordinary runoff into mist
The binkers enjoying the mist
The creek rushing full force down the mountain
Yesterday, Monday, July 18, we headed the other direction to the Nebo loop and Payson Canyon. Our destination was Payson Lakes where we picnicked and enjoyed the beauties of nature.
Payson Lakes with Mount Nebo in the distance
Madeline and the Hastings
Probing the depths
Wild roses in bloom
The wet spring and early summer rains have created a
bumper crop of beautiful wildflowers
Yellow-eyed Susans?
A beautiful spot
I'm sure there will be more adventures, but this is all for now.
