Stela, Rebecca, and I join up with Mike, Chas, and Sam at a cabin up in the Cottonwood Canyons. It's a pretty cool place but we were the first to use the summer cabin which is buried in snow during the winter. This means there were plenty of spiderwebs, dead bugs, and mouse droppings to be found. We paid our dues by helping to clean up the place and we camped in the living room with a wood fire going in the fireplace. The neighbors had a zip line that we took advantage of as well. The next day some of us hit the Lake Blanche trail and after a few hours and a vertical climb of 2500 feet we got to the iced over lake. Due to sudden warm weather the rivers and waterfalls were gushing but it got snowy the higher we went. Poor Rebecca was only wearing flip flops and the snow and elevation change didn't sit too well with that. She's all smiles while on the zip line but I'm not sure if we are friends anymore because I chose the hike. However, it was certainly very beautiful up there.
