My mom had an Easter egg hunt/BBQ tonight and it threw us off, so the kids were late getting into bed, and I only had time for 4 miles on the TM. I didn't feel like working out at all, but I am glad I did because I felt really good after I was done. 

This has been a rather boring week, so I thought I would add a link to spice things up. Last week Jun and I put together a photo album of some of our peak jumping pictures from the last few years. Some of them are cool, others are funny, and a few of them look crazy. Check it out if you have a few minutes:

Cool pics scott! I like the one with the far off shot of the edge of that cliff with someone jumping toward it, that looks like they are going to jump off.

Happy EAster!!

Thanks guys.

Aaron- That is Jun on (or above) the highest peak in Utah, Kings peak. Yeah, I really like that one.

Leslie- I hope you have a great weekend and a happy Easter as well. Yes, we have fun :)

VERY COOL pics! Such dare devils having SOOOOO much crazy fun!!! No peak climbing/jumping this Easter weekend?

From Kelli on Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 22:11:17 from 71.219.89.155

Okay, the Kings Peak one from way out looks scary, it makes it look like you guys could fall right off the mountain.

Aaaah. That picture Aaron is talking about...The one that looks suicidal..haha. Made me ill looking at it. *shudder*

Love the peak jumping. What's the next peak on your schedule?

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Apr 02, 2010 at 11:19:32 from 66.239.250.209

The exposure on the Kings pic isn't as bad as it looks, but it is a very cool picture because of the angle. It is one of my favorites.

I am tentatively planning on taking a break during the day today to climb View Benchmark, which is the highest point south of Draper, by Suncrest. It should be pretty easy.

Twinkies- I am tentatively planning on doing the Wire/Red Butte hike/run tomorrow if you are interested. If the weather is bad I will scrap it.

Missy- You are welcome any time.

From Twinkies on Fri, Apr 02, 2010 at 12:53:40 from 72.37.244.84

What time are you planning on going? I will join you if it is not too late. I need to be home by 9:30 a.m.

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Apr 02, 2010 at 13:25:59 from 66.239.250.209

Meet at 7:00 AM at the trailhead. I am planning on going as long as it isn't snowing hard. We should be able to get back to the cars by 9:00.

Matt- We moved this to 6:45 AM. I just sent you an email.
