Secret Swing 2

Remember this post from way back in the day about the secret swing? We wanted to see what the hike was like in the Summer so we packed our deuter and made our way up to the White Pine Lake trail in Little Cottonwood Canyon. We were hoping the swing was still in good shape since two winters have passed since our last visit.

The hike was pretty with the snow, but even prettier now that we could see what was underneath. I love how close the mountains are, Utah is so beautiful.

Once we pass this look out we're almost there.

The swing was a sturdy beast, so we were shocked to find that it was broken! 

I'm sure the weight of the snow and moisture didn't let it withstand mother nature. Though we look happy, we were so, so sad. At least the seat was still there and hadn't slid off the cliff so we were able to enjoy our packed lunch while enjoying the beautiful view of the valley.

Gorgeous.
