2009 Adventure #6 Gooseberry

Yesterday, Cheryl and I found ourselves with the whole day to our self's. Hm...packed the car with some goodies and lunch, grabbed our fly rods and we were off first thing in the morning for an all day adventure.

We drove to Gooseberry Canyon with the thought of exploring our potential camping areas to bring the family or get away for a weekend. This area was beautiful. Halfway up Gooseberry, we pulled over and looked back down the canyon and were just taken back with the colors and scenery. I would highly recommend this drive to anyone, I'd even volunteer to be your guide if you would like.


Cheryl accused me of taking the drive to check out the construction project near the summit. Yes, the project was interesting and I took some mental notes as we proceeded through the project; however, being with my wife away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoying the great outdoors was what today was all about.


Our journey took us over the summit and into Lost Creek and down Seven Mile Creek. We were able to stop and walk about a bit enjoy the scenery. No pressure to hurry just take our time. As we returned home via Fish Lake we made several side trips to places of interest.

It was an awesome day to spend together and just take in the greatness of the day.

That looks like an awesome place. Where is it exactly? Far from Highland?
