Little Cottonwood

We had a little brush with disaster a couple of weeks ago. We took advantage of the beautiful day to go hiking up Little Cottonwood Canyon. We went up a random trail, had a little picnic, looked around at the beautifully roaring creek, took some pictures, and went home...












Bethany LOVED the rushing water- she kept pointing at it!

We passed some police and some news trucks on our way home. On the news later that night, they strongly urged hikers to stay away from there because of severe risk of the creek flooding. In fact, this creek actually DID flood- by the next day some nearby bridges, and even some basements and yards, were under water. We had no idea! We just thought the creek looked pretty!
