We were finally able to take our first camping trip, just the two of us July 10 - 11. We decided to go camping a few days before we went, so we left a little early from work on the 10th and headed up the canyon to find a campsite! We first tried Timpanogos Campgroup, but they were full. Three campgrounds and 4 hours later, we finally found a site in Maple campground up Hobble Creek Canyon somewhere. After talking to the campground host for a few minutes, we realized why there were still sites left in his campground - he had just shot a bear there about a week before we came camping! So, needless to say, I spent all night looking over my shoulder and jumping at anything that made noise! We were able to get our camp all set up about a half hour before the sun went down. We roasted some hot dogs over the fire for dinner and sat around our campfire for awhile, having s'mores and chatting. The next morning we got up and had breakfast and then had to hurry and break camp, because it started to rain! Even though we weren't able to camp for very long, we still had a great first camping trip together. It's too bad it took us 4 years to go!! Hopefully it won't be that long before we can go again!!
