South Valley Park - April 8, 2011

Four Hussies (minus Connie) planned to hike Deer Creek Valley Park, but decided to veer off course and try South Valley Park instead. It was a good decision! South Valley brought us countless surprises: stunning rock formations, more spring wildflowers, a rock horse for Beth to ride, and an introduction to the  fascinating and tragic life of Cathy Johnson. (More about that to come from Carol...). Anticipating crowded summer hiking trails, the Hussies made an instructional video demonstrating proper turns on the trail. This will long be remembered as the hike with the most belly laughs and the most tamales. We logged 5.5 miles.

Could they possibly be any cuter?
