Take a hike! No doubt you have heard this phrase within your lifetime. It actually means to leave or get lost, but I’m not telling you to do that at all! I’m actually encouraging you to get lost in the wilds of Wyoming through hiking Last year my wife, daughter and I took a trip west on I-80 to Vedauwoo for a little family outing (the name Vedauwoo is a Native American term meaning “Land of the Earth-born Spirits” and when you arrive, you’ll understand why). We decided to take a hike on Turtle Rock Trail. The trail is great for beginners, as it’s essentially just a large 3.2-mile circle. We walked up and down the trail past trees, beneath aspens and marshy wetlands to the south. There were scattered pine trees and cracked rock, too. The family time was great and the experience of hiking the trail was a light physical challenge, which we all needed. Some of the most beautiful, natural sculptures can be seen in Vedauwoo. So this spring and summer, go take a hike. It’s a great way to bond with nature, your family and yourself. What’s your favorite hiking destination in the area? Maybe I’ll take your suggestion and head there next!
