Pigeon Mountain


For Valentine's Greg and I took the WRX for a little road trip. The only place that Greg's new car had been since he bought it was up to Brighton ski resort - Greg drove up Big Cottonwood every night beginning with the day he bought the car. So, we wanted to take the Rex on some dirt roads to see how it would handle. Our day started at 10:30am, when we left the house. We headed to Wendover and got away from the crappy weather that was stuck in the Salt Lake valley. Once we got west a little ways it was blue skies for miles to the west. From Wendover we headed through Oasis and Montello. There was a peak out there named, Pigeon Mountain that we had planned on hiking. We took a couple dirt roads to the peak and "got 'er done." It was a great hike. We had a late start on the hike, so while we were coming down the sun was setting. The cimulus clouds to the east were so big and fluffy. With the sun setting on the clouds they turned bright pink - perfect for Valentine's, right? Once we got back to the car we headed to Snowville and then jumped back on I-15. We got home around 11:30pm. The Rexs first adventure with us! We had a great day and a great hike.
