Shawn has started an new tradition with the boys, the last couple of years they pack back in on horseback and stay over night for a few days. They decided to go to a new place every year. This year the went up to Painter Basin in the high Uintahs. They even talked grandpa Douglas into going on the ride. They rode back in about 4 hours before they found just the right spot to camp.
They hobbled the horses and just let them graze.
Some spots in the river were so deep that they all got their feet wet, even Kolt! (he thought that was pretty cool.)
In the back ground of this picture you can see the lake that they rode into and stayed.
Shawn said the boys had a blast fishing. He said they were catching them left and right all day long everyday they were there. Kyle was excited because he got a lot of practice in with his new fly pole.
My three favorite cowboys!
This was the crappy trail they rode in on. You can see the little narrow path where the rocks were moved. Shawn said the trail was so bad in a few spots the horses were having to jump over the big rocks. He said I probably would have had a melt down. I guess it was really steep and rocky with a bunch of little edges hanging off the mountain. Yikes, good thing it was a "no girls allowed" trip.

I am so jealous of your horses. You have to message me at work and tell me what 'hobble the horses' means. So glad your boys had a good time...now what did Mom do all weekend long?
