Another easy camping trip with the boys, it ruled. Mirror Lake highway totally open, minimal amounts of people, fantastic weather and I got to hang out around the campfire with my IPOD and some very fine Grateful Dead after the boys went to sleep, hehe. Here are a couple pix:

Very cool... I love that area up there. I have some good memories of my first trip with my dad up there when I was 11. Hope your boys had a good time.
Your avatar is misleading, by the way. |

Yep, they both bitched me out for it being just one night. I'm actually taking them on a week long all Utah excursion at the end of July. |

LOL! That is the joke behind it, I'm sort of a regular type, family guy that likes to rage now and then (in private). |

Did you pack in?
I am looking for a cool place to take my 7 year old for a two nighter with fishing nearby.
Thought about China Meadows or Christmas meadows. Any other suggestions?
Pack in around five miles would't be a problem, since I will have most of the weight. |

I'd do the same area again this weekend if it stays in the mid 80s here. Plenty of near by lakes you can just drive to along the highway. I liked having a bathroom close by cause with a 4 and 7 year old I get plenty of false alarms. I plan on a couple back packing trips just with the 7 year old, that is such a great age to start them. |
