Camping at Lyman Lake

This last weekend we (Zach, I, and his parents) went camping up in the Uintas at Lyman Lake. There is a youth stake camp up there, and Zach's grandparents are a couple of the care takers of the camp. This was our first and last camping trip of the year. (Besides the beach party at Mom's)

This is just before we left. It was early, can't you tell with the looks on there faces?

-sorry about the stop sign-

This is the lodge.

This is the cabin that Zach's grandparents stay in.

These are views of the lake.

This is my attempt at lighting coals for our dutch oven. It was windy and I couldn't get a match to stay lit.

Eating our tin foil dinners. My favorite camping meal.

My first attempt at cobbler in the dutch oven. It tasted realy good and only took 3 hours to cook. I didn't light enough coals at first then the wind kept taking the heat away. We finaly had to put it over the fire with all the coals on the top. It cooked fast after that.

Our dog Kaede after a long day of squirrel hunting/chasing. She decided that was a really fun thing to do while we were there.

Me in the morning. I wore 2 pairs of socks up to my knees, my levis and flanel pants, 2 hoodies with the hoods up most of the night, then I had a big sleeping bag with a blanket underneath me and one on top. Needless to say, I didn't get cold in the 30 degree weather.

The stay there was short, just Saturday and Sunday, but it was still a ton of fun.
