Trek--Part 2

Martin's Cove
 The 2nd morning we headed an hour west to Martin's Cove. We were very excited to get trekking and on our way. Above is me with "our girls"; Kylie, Maddi, Rachel, and Taylor.
 Sam with "our boys"; Kris, Chris, Blake, and Blake (yep it made remembering their names very easy!).
 Two cute girls from our ward.

 The river crossing was the most fun we had. It felt so good to take off our shoes, get cooled off, and get away from the dust for a little bit.
 We actually had awesome weather while we were there. It was definitely hot, but the wind blew just a little bit all the time (no major windstorms) and the clouds would come over in the afternoon to give us some shade.
We spent all day in Martin's Cove. As we walked around the actual cove, it was a silent walk, and it was so neat to ponder what happened here and the amazingness of the rescue. What a sacrifice these people made and all to get to the valley so they could go to the temple!
