Camelbacks and a Belly Pack

We decided to hike to the top of the Superstition Mountains to Flat Iron and the Hoodoos. Yep there is the Mountain! Cool huh?!
We started up the canyon as it began to rain...Oh well the weather always does that to our plans.
I never realized how hard it was to hike 2800 ft up a mountain being 5 1/2 months pregnant. I had to stop and rest a lot to say the least. Kent was awesome.
We finally, emphasis on finally, made it to the top and the Mesa AZ valley was below us.
We ate lunch as the clouds and wind kept rolling in.
Going to the Hoodoos at the top was the coolest part
expect when a cactus got Kent, and another punctured into my leg.
We went climbing and bouldering around a bit through the Hoodoos.
Before it started raining heavy again we made our way back down. I was so tired and sore I could barely keep going. But it was all worth it!Six hours later we were out. A good celebration of our 1 year anniversary of our Engagement Nov. 14 2008, where I was proposed to on top of Camelback Mt.The Superstition Mountains, Arizona!

  2. Looks like it was a fun hike.

    You don't have to worry Dayna about going slow with Kent-I tried to get him acclimated to that by hiking with me. We usually would have some deal where we would go really slow one way and then he would run down the other.

    Regardless, I definitely wasn't pregnant when I was hiking...I'm not quite sure how you are doing it...
