Birthday at Utah Lake State Park

Birthday at Utah Lake State Park

This seems to be a good October place as the weather is not really cold at this elevation.  The campground is just ok but we have always enjoyed our stays here.  We were in Arches for my Birthday and wouldn’t you know it we are camping again for Ashley’s birthday (Dont tell her but I think I won with my birthday destination). While at Utah Lake we meet Leigh and Brian, AKA Aluminarium.  Brian was nice enough to offer up some…

Wasatch Mountain State Park

Wasatch Mountain State Park

Back at Wasatch Mountain State park again this weekend.  We came up with some friends that recently got a trailer and they wanted to check the place out.  We stayed in a different spot of the loop from where we normally are and did not like it as much. One of the things that we really like about Wasatch Mountain State Park is the close proximity to Midway and Heber.  When we stay here we frequently go into town and…
