Annual Abbott Family Lake Powell Excursion

The world’s best destination spot – just in our backyard.  It was an amazing trip as always.

We always have a hike and this year we had two winners.  (meaning we actually enjoyed it and found what we were looking forSmile).  We went to Rainbow Bridge and a slot canyon that was at the end of West Canyon.  It was absolutely amazing.  The kids enjoy the hikes and adventures, but the truth is, finding frogs is the #1 important mission!

If you like your own space, don’t join us.  There seems to be a lot of crowded time on the boat, but it just makes it cozy.  Lots of bonding time!

Bathing in the lake is tons of fun.  Brittney showing off her natural beauty.

We feel lucky to have survived this years trip.  We found a scorpion and rattlesnake on our beach.  Grandpa was brave and killed the snake, then Matthew Pearce skinned it.  Quite the Boy Scout challenge.
