A couple of weeks ago, I went hiking to one of the most beautiful lakes on earth, Baker Lake, just north of Ketchum, Idaho. I have been there before, but it's been a few years, and I forgot how difficult the hike is. Whew! It was a definite accomplishment to get to the top. I'm not sure how high we climbed, but it was 75 degrees at the trailhead, and the lake is still mostly frozen. So, I think we climbed pretty high. Not only is the trail pretty steep, but we encountered a lot of snow. Weird, with it being July and all. So not only was I super tired from just getting up the mountain, but trudging through the snow stole what little strength I had left. I was so, so excited to get to the top. It was super fun to hang out with my dad and Jordan. Apparently, we're making this an annual event. Hopefully, there won't be so much snow every year.
