Biggest "mountain" Ever

Today, being Memorial Day, a few of us (Levi, Cassie, Carol, Katie, Marty and I) decided to go and hike R mountain. I am not sure what the R stand for, probably Rexburg, but it was something I have never done before nor my roommates. At noon we all set off for a "breeze" of a hike? Well what I thought would be a breeze.

THIS WAS NOT A BREEZE! My roommates were dying much more than I was, but my oh
my... can you say straight up. The very last quarter of a mile had a chain for you to hold on to, to ensure a safer trip.

Once we all reached the top we took a couple of pictures, after a few of the roommates took some deep breaths, threw up a little granola bar and drank some water of course. Overall, it was a great weekend. After a week of 4 tests, 2 huge projects, homework, and soccer and football game, a 3 day weekend was a must. I also discovered that I am now addicted to gatorade2. It just is amazing! I think I have drank 20 bottles this entire weekend!
Here are a couple of pictures from the hike today.

  1. 20 bottles of Gatorade in one week? That's got to be violation of the WOW! Glad to see you out getting some "exercise". Missed you up on the roof this past weekend.

    Love,
    Mom & Dad

  2. Reminds me of my freshman hike up Y mount in Provo... my roommates and I started by walking TO the mountain first. By the time we reached the top I thought I was going to die. I've never seen so many switchbacks in my life! Glad you are doing what you said about taking advantage for seeing and doing things around there before you graduate. You won't regret it!

    Love you!!
