bYu

So I've been at BYU for three full years and have yet to attempt to climb Y Mountain. It is a BYU tradition and something that has to be done at least once while you are here. Well.... I can successfully say that I have done it!! It took me long enough, right?

This summer I decided that it was something that I really wanted to try to do this year. I mentioned it to my roommates and they were on board! Last Friday Alyssa, Erin, Eric and I decided we would hike since we didn't have class in the afternoon. It was a nice day and wasn't too hot outside.

When we started the hike I thought that there was no way I would be able to finish it :) It was steep and I was not used to the altitude yet. There were 11 turns on the hike and I made everyone stop at every single one :) They were all really good sports and helped me keep going. During the hike it was hard but it was so worth it in the end. The view was amazing and the hike was so rewarding.

Alyssa and the view!

Check out that view!

Alyssa really wanted to lay upside down on the Y since it was so steep. I was too scared to try.
