With hubby being home the week of 4th of July, it feels like a little mini vacation. Sunday we finally explored Mirror Lake, elevation 10,687 ft. Seeing remnants of snow scattered on the ground was a good indication we were much higher than where we live, elevation 6,000+ ft.
It was about a 1.5 to 2 hour drive. Once we arrived, it was quite obvious Mirror Lake is a favorite fishing spot; the lake is plenty stocked with trout. We walked around the lake admiring the carpet of wildflowers, enjoying the cool brisk air and watching fish jump out of the water.
It took us about 2 hours to walk around the lake

On our way back down Uinta Mountain, we also visited Provo River Waterfall. With all the snow melt runoff, the roaring waterfall and gushing river was quite spectacular. It made me feel like going white water rafting.

Later that evening, guess what I had for dinner?
Yes, Trout :o)
