Story

Tara and the kids picked me up at BYU, and we went to Rock Canyon for family home evening. The goal was to find some letterboxing and do some hiking in the nice weather. There was supposed to be a letterbox near the rock climbing area at the mouth of Rock Canyon. We searched around for it for quite a while but didn't find it. We hiked up to roadside cave. We had some snowball fights along the way. Cooper dragged his feet, so we ended up giving him a piggyback ride for a fair amount of the hike.
