This is my old stomping grounds in Utah.  I was able to stop and do a little climbing and hiking. It brought backs a lot of adventurous memories. 

Most of you my recognize Multnomah falls. Really crowded, I think there was a senior citizen convention so needless to say I just walked up the hill a ways and then had the place to myself. 

I went on a day hike up to punchbowl falls.  It was a beautiful hike and then I went swimming under that thing. Slightly to incredibly cold, but refreshing. 

In hind sight I wish I had not swam under that one.  A little deeper and little more powerful than it looks.  Kind of rocked my world. But I gave the spectators a good laugh/scare. 

Hike to the top of multnomah, pretty cool.
