A summer getaway to Mount Lemon

This July (2012) we went up to Mount Lemon with my mom and her friend. We drove down, spent the night and the next day drove up the mountain, had a picnic lunch, rode the ski lift and then drove back to Queen Creek that day. It was a lot of fun.

This is our nice room at Embassy Suites in Tucon.

This was the girls first experience in the forest without snow.

Here is our picnic table.

My Aunt Cindy met us on the Mountain.

Brooke especially loved hiking around the mountain. She never wanted to stop and wanted to explore everything.

Brielle loved it too but was a little more worried about walking around with the unsure footing.

We hiked by a little stream.

It was so beautiful and perfect weather in the mid 70's.



Brielle and Grandma rode went up together.

At the top, there had been a forest fire recently.
