King's Peak - 13,528 ft

Last week was scout camp and that means camping...and hiking and backpacking etc. etc. Cody and the other scout leaders took the scouts up to King's Peak this year, which is the highest peak in the state of Utah. They left on Monday and backpacked into Dollar Lake, where they set up base camp. Tuesday they summited King's Peak and South King's Peak (13,512 ft, 2nd highest peak in Utah). Here is Cody at the summit of Kings...

Here he is on the summit of Gunsight peak (13,263 ft, 8th highest in Utah).

This is a shot from Gunsight Peak, looking towards Kings Peak.

This is a shot looking up to all the peaks they hiked too (Gunsight Peak to the left and Kings to the far right).

The scout troop and leaders who all went...

Summit of South Kings Peak (13,512 feet, 2nd highest peak in Utah)

In between their hikes, they had a hatchet throwing contest..

Summit of Gilbert Peak (13,442 ft 3rd highest in Utah) I'm just glad to say everyone came home safe and happy. They had a lot of fun and they all enjoyed the experience of climbing to the 3 highest points in Utah. They even made it home on Friday night which was a surprise because they planned on coming home Saturday afternoon. I don't think Anna could have made one more day without her daddy. We are definitely glad he's home without any injuries.
