Scout Falls
I found a neat setting on my P&S which allows greater control for waterfall photos - this was taken with the “Fireworks” setting. Seems logical, as I wanted the streaming water, much like the streaming fireworks.
On a hike up to Timpanogos, I took only my P&S camera due to weight, and with a little editing, I think I found a decent photo. Timpanogos is an amazing hike. Climbing from about 7800’ to 11,700’ in a day will kick just about anyone’s behind. It’s about a 5 hr hike from the bottom of Timpanooke to the summit, and this is a photo of Scout Falls - just 40-45 minutes from the Timpanooke parking lot. An easy hike with kids for such a beautiful location!
Take a look at my hike with MotionX for the iPhone here.

Lower Yellowstone Falls
What can I say? Last weekend was fantastic! Summer wasn’t over at the Barlow’s, and so we made our way up to Yellowstone National Park. The scenery in this part of the country is breathtaking, and if you haven’t been yet, make plans to head out next year.

Emerald Pool Falls
Looking West along the Kayenta Trail heading towards the Emerald Pools in National National Park, one can get a view of the three waterfalls which fill the Upper, Middle and Lower Pools.
It’s said that this trail is the third-most-used in Zion National Park, and I can see why. It is also just about 3 miles round trip - giving all level of hikers enjoyment along a less strenuous path.

Provo River Falls
Just downstream from the High Uinta Lakes, such as Trial, Teapot, Lost, Lilly, and Wall Lakes, along the Mirror Lake Highway is the beautiful cascading Provo River Falls. This river drains all the way from this wilderness to Jordanelle Resorvoir, Deer Creek Reservoir, and finally continues down Provo Canyon and empties into Utah Lake. It’s quite the distance, and to see this high up in the wilderness is a wonderful sight.
The Provo River Falls area is filled with a lot of waterfalls this size, and my only wish was that I had a ND filter for my fisheye lens and had taken my tripod out of the car. Definitely a fantastic place to hike, camp, or picnic when the weather is right. Utah has some amazing beauty!

Rainbow of Light
Catching a last bit of sunshine in the Aspen Grove waterfall produced a rainbow of light flowing over the mountainside.

Timp Waterfalls
On a previous hike with the family up the Aspen Grove trail of Timpanogos, we hit the 1st and 2nd waterfalls which are found along the path. Pictured is the 2nd waterfall - a ton of water streaming down maybe a 25-30 foot mountain wall.
This hike is perhaps the most beautiful that I’ve been on in Utah. It’s an easy hike - just 1.2 - 1.4 miles from the Aspen Grove parking lot, making it closer than the Stewart Falls hike with 2x the beauty.
