Jared and the boys finally made it on the Mesa Hike at the Peterson reunion and it was amazing!
They left early morning before sunrise.
They didn't know half of the group, but everyone was from the reunion... so related somehow.
Jared described the desert landscape on the hike as something on the moon.
The first part of the hike was just getting across the flats to the base of the mesa.
Uncle Derek is a pro hiker and super fun!
Our guides, two of Jack's sons, knew the best route and led the group up certain ravines and accesses that weren't too steep.
Yea for adventure! Jared was the photographer but got a shot of himself too.
Lots of amazing view points on the way.

It's awesome to do adventures with these great hikers!

A horny toad Jordan found.
They also tasted some edibles - wild onions.
Headed back down
Victorious!
Jared got really excited about this orchard property for sale at the base of the mesa. :)
