It was as if David were starving for adventure after months of basement isolation. So. bleary-eyed we hopped into the car at midnight flashlights in tow to hike Mt. Timpanogos.
Fourteen miles of hiking lay before us with more than a mile of elevation gain. It was also pitch dark on a trail we had never hiked before.
Did we get lost? Momentarily.
Did it rain on us. A little.
Was it an adventure? Oh yes!
With all our fumbling and wrong turns under the stars, it took us 8 hours to reach the summit. But sunrise over the meadow was a moment not to be missed.
Sore but satisfied, we had conquered the mountain. And oh how great it felt!
