The weather this past weekend was just amazing, so we had to get out. One of our favorite hikes is Stewart Falls just above Sundance. We had only visited the falls during autumn when all the leaves are changing colors and the runoff from Mount Timpanogos is just trickle. We arrived mid-afternoon and it turned out to be the perfect time. The sun hid behind the larger peaks for a lot of the hike, so we had a good amount of shade. We were in much better shape this hike than the last time we went, so it was much easier to hike it and seemed much shorter. This hike also gives you some amazing views of the valley where the Sundance Resort sits. The falls were just spectacular. You can hear them pounding on the bottom of the cliffs from a ways away. The mist from the falls is refreshing on a warm day like yesterday. There were still some patches of snow on the side of the mountain and a few people climbed to the top to sled down. Overall, it was a great way to spend an afternoon with the family.
