Pittsburg Lake

A week after we got home from Yellowstone, Riley and I still had a hiking bug, so we decided to go exploring close to home. We went up American Fork Canyon, set up camp, and hiked to Pittsburg Lake. It was such a great hike. . .steep and rocky, but well worth it.

Heading back to camp. Max had a much harder time hiking down because of all the loose rocks on the trail. Roundtrip, a little over 2 hours. That night, it felt as if we had the canyon to ourselves. It was so quiet!
