Mandan Summit

It's hard to believe that having lived here all my life, I have never ridden the chairlift at Sundance. Maren, Gavin, and the boys arrived yesterday from Arizona, and today we went to Sundance for a new adventure. From the end of the chairlift we climbed up about a mile to the Mandan Summit. From there one gets a very different perspective of Mount Timp than I am used to. The colors are all still spectacular and the ride was an absolute delight. Great idea, Maren!

The cousins are here!

We made the quad chairs hold six

Stewart's Cirque

The view south from the end of the lift

The maples are still brilliant red

The view north across Aspen Grove with the Salt Lake
mountains in the distance

The afternoon was spectacular and we dodged the rain

The Youngs and Mount Timpanogos

The Mandan Summit

The greens and yellows are as brilliant as the reds

Utah Mountain Maples

Color so beautiful it makes my heart hurt

Ready for the ride down

I'm sure there will be other adventures and we will report. That, however, is all for now.
