the grand sawtooths...cold as wiz

after making a pit-stop in twin falls, my friend sam and i, headed up to the sawtooth wilderness to camp and hike for a few days.  it was early spring there so there was snow everywhere and many of the trails were unable to pass through.  we trudged through mounds of snow, icy rivers, and swarms of mosquitos.  i was wearing long sleeved thermals and my shoulders still managed to be covered in bites.  all of the towns we passed through on the way to the sawtooths were cute little tourist towns with log-style lodges, restaurants, and shops.  even though we had to turn around after getting so far on the trails, the trip was great!

i made a stop in las vegas with my friend for a few days.  not my thing to say the least, but it was great to hang out with lindsay and lay by the pool!
