Uinta's
Headed up to the Uinta's to see how much snow was still hanging around. There is still snow around the 10,000 foot level and above but it is melting fast! Temps were great (much better than 90's in SLC) and the weather was your typical, chilly in the morning, beautiful late morning, and then raining, hailing, and thundering by afternoon... made perfect sky's for picture taking!

Wakeboarding at Echo Reservoir
After the Widowmaker Hill Climb, we cruised out to Echo Reservoir and did some Wakeboarding. It was the first of the year for me. When it is 90+ you will find me either in air conditioning, the mountains, or in the water. Oh and I am going with the bigger slide shows so if your screen resolution isn't big enough, sorry.
Widowmaker Hill Climb
My good buddy Randy entered the Widowmaker Hill Climb this year, I was luckily able to be a "spotter" and help catch bikes when his group (about 5 people) went up the hill. I mostly just took pictures as most either didn't need my help, or they needed help next to one of the other guys instead of me. It was super fun and they were able to make quite a bit of money for charity!

Silver Lake Flat and Alpine Loop
You all are getting spoiled with pictures since I actually own a camera again. I ran up to Silver Lake Flat Reservoir for sunrise yesterday and then hiked around for 5 or 6 miles on the hills around Timp. I always feel so spoiled living so close to all this great stuff!

Snowboarding... in June?
Went up to Snowbird last Saturday and had a blast. The weather was awesome, there is nothing like riding down the hill in a T-Shirt! Good times.

Climbing in Draper
Went climbing last night at a little crag up near Suncrest. It's mostly really easy slab stuff but there were a couple above 5.10 so it was fun. Since I have a camera now, I actually have pics from it (woo hoo):
New Camera
So I finally broke down and bought a new camera. I ended up getting the Nikon D80 SLR, so far I'm really liking it. I took it out to see what I could do with it yesterday and here are some pics:
