Big Horn Mine Hike



Our ward had a family hike last month to Big Horn Mine, near Wrightwood. Austin loves going on hikes. It's been a year since we've done anything like this. It should have been a relatively easy hike. But, a lot of the trail was washed out from rock slides. Our goal was to reach the mine and explore inside. Brandon and Payton pooped out before the last bend. (The mine was about 4 miles one way.) So I stayed behind to let them rest. There was a little snow on the sides of the trail. Payton and Brandon had fun playing in it. Austin and Tom trekked ahead and found the mine opening. Unfortunately, they had left their flashlights with us. Too bad. It was pitch black inside. Austin wouldn't go inside if we gave him a million dollars.
