We managed to score 4 days off together & headed up to explore Sun Valley, ID. It was nice to escape the 100 heat of SLC & try some new trails. The days were full of clear blue skies & sunshine, with cool refreshing nights. We have to admit, living there might be pretty nice. Super dog friendly area with wilderness trails, lakes, & camping you can even use!
Backpacking to Hell Roaring Lake (Sawtooth National Recreation Area)

Redfish Lake
Oregon Gulch trail to Fox Creek....right from the campground
Chilling by the river 
Corral Canyon trailWho needs full suspension when the trails are butter smooth? I'll use it anyway!
Wildflowers among the charred trees (burned in 2007)
Going fast & taking chances
Lodgepole Gulch...not so fond memories. Many miles continuously UPHILL!!! Luckily the flowers were really pretty anyway! 
linking to Mahoney Creek
"Moses" tour of the forest (never ending!) Shortly after, we took a "detour" in which we got to climb out back up hill. Doh!
A long day of riding...being back at the car= pricelessAnd home before midnight even....bonus.
